Here’s a list of 5 defragmentation software for Windows 10 which you can use to defragment your hard drive and hopefully speed up your Windows 10 powered PC. With time Windows has the tendency to slow down, and file fragmentation is one of the main reasons why this slow down happens. Applications from the list down below can analyze and in case it’s needed, they will also help defragment your hard drive, bringing you back at least some of the speed that was lost.
Let’s look at these software below.
Disk Defrag Free
Disk Defrag Free is a small and lightweight disk defragmentation software for Windows 10 where you can easily analyze and defragment your partitions to boost PC performance.
Like a lot of other similar applications, Disk Defrag Free lets you see graphically just how fragmented partitions on your computer are. The app lets you defragment, only analyze (to see the extent of the fragmentation) or to do a quick defragment of your hard drive. Automatic shutdown will shutdown the computer after finishing defragmentation.

Quick Defrag
Quick Defrag uses something similar to a wizard in order to setup the defragmentation process. You will need to select the action that you want to perform, and the partition letter that you want checked.
It’s possible to only scan and analyze the partition and then defragment, or analyze and then start the defragmentation right away. “Defrag in background” option hides the main window to system tray so it’s not in the way.
