    Defragmenting Windows

    Remember the good old days when you could quite happily have watched your hard disk defragmenting for hours!? Someone said that if Bill had sold the program, he would have made even more money.
    Hopefully you are aware that you should not/cannot defragment your SSD (Solid State Drive, but you may not be aware that you can optimize it by typing Defrag in to the search box, click 'Defrag and Optimise drives'. You will then see the usual optimise window that you see with a hard disk. You may see that optimise is not available, but if it is, click it, and your SSD will be 'Trimmed'. Avoiding technicalities, this makes your SSD faster.
