WinContig 5.0.3.1 – Defragmenter Freeware

WinContig is a user-friendly, standalone defragmentation tool. It requires no installation and leaves no traces on your system (no installation directories or Registry entries).

Its purpose is to quickly defragment files without requiring the entire disk to be defragmented. Additionally, WinContig enables grouping files and folders into profiles for later processing.

This tool supports FAT32 and NTFS file systems and is compatible with hard disks and SSDs.

Most defragmentation tools perform a general defragmentation of an entire partition. In a real-life scenario, you often want to defragment a single file or a directory, for example, to improve the loading speed of a program file, or to reduce the loading time of a certain disk-intensive application like a game.

WinContig is specifically designed for users who prioritize defragmenting individual files and folders over defragmenting the entire disk.

Its ability to filter files by several criteria, combined with its ability to be controlled via command-line switches, makes this application the perfect tool for defragmenting particular files that are frequently used and continuously becoming fragmented.

To get started with WinContig, extract the contents of the ZIP archive to any location and run the executable. Its defragmentation and analysis engine leverages the standard Microsoft defragmentation API.

Two different defragmentation methods:

If you choose the Quick method, WinContig looks for the first available free space large enough to defragment a file and uses it. This method is ideal if you regularly use tools like Windows Defrag to defragment your hard disk.

If you select the Smart method, WinContig identifies the most suitable free space location to defragment the file. If insufficient contiguous free space is available to defragment a file completely, WinContig attempts to minimize the number of file fragments.

This application is freeware for personal and commercial use.
