INTRODUCTION

DefragMentor Premium is a file defragmentation product, which
improves performance of your personal computer or server by
defragmenting large and system files.

Unlike competitors, DefragMentor Premium does not attempt to
defragment your hard drive as a whole, but rather defragments
certain sets of files (pre-set or user-defined), allowing very quick
optimization of your system. With DefragMentor Premium key
files affecting your computer performance will always be in a
good shape thus making the system and applications work faster.

DefragMentor Premium can be used by both IT System
Administrators to defragment large database, system and shared
files on a server, as well as by home/business users to defragment
frequently used files such as mailboxes, personal databases,
graphics and video files on their personal computers.

DefragMentor Premium features the wizard-like interface, so no
specific knowledge is required to run a simple optimization.
DefragMentor Premium can be set to start automatically when
your system is idle.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

DefragMentor Premium can be installed on any computer
running Windows 2003, Windows XP or Windows 2000. If you
want to use the product with Windows NT 4.0 make sure Service
Pack 5 and Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher are installed.

With DefragMentor Premium you can defragment files on disks
formatted in FAT, FAT32 and NTFS file systems with cluster
size less than or equal to 4K.

To use DefragMentor Premium you must be a member of local
Administrators group on the computer where the product is
installed.

FEATURES

-- Safety first!
DefragMentor Premium uses the native Windows
defragmentation support and does not access a hard drive
directly. Therefore DefragMentor Premium is quite safe and
under no circumstances can break the disk structure consistency.

-- Work with ease

DefragMentor Premium remains very easy to use. Even knowing
nothing about computers you can still take a full advantage of the
product. DefragMentor Premium features a clear Wizard-like
interface. All tasks are broken down in a series of simple steps
guiding you to a desired result.

defragmenting

computer work faster, rely on DefragMentor Premium and let it
quickly identify those files for you.

-- Get your files defragmented while the computer is idle

allows defragmenting frequently changed files while the
computer is idle. Even more û if you wish, DefragMentor Screen
Saver will do its job in background bringing your favorite screen
saver to the front so that you can keep enjoying it.

-- Run defragmentation on schedule
With DefragMentor Premium you can schedule files for a
recurrent defragmentation. Set any recurrence pattern (e.g. every
day, weekly, etc.) and let DefragMentor Premium take care of
your files. Does not matter if you are not logged in to the system
or the computer is in a stand-by mode û DefragMentor Premium
will execute the scheduled defragmentation automatically once
its time comes.

-- Defragment key system files when Windows is starting up

Windows all the time, they can only be defragmented when

job û defragmenting virtual memory files, Registry and other
system files in a breeze.

copies and the written material along with a copy of the invoice
or receipt to DefragMentor Software or to the dealer where the
product was purchased.

this contract, DefragMentor Software accepts no responsibility
for mistakes in the software. In particular, DefragMentor
Software does not guarantee that the software will meet the
particular requirements and demands of the purchaser or that it
will function together with other software he or she has chosen.

the same right should the creation of software that is
fundamentally fit for use as described in clause 1 not be
practically possible.
