After running DiskMagik several times, my drive still shows fragmentation. Why?
This is a common question and results from a limited understanding of disk fragmentation. In an nutshell, fragmentation occurs naturally in Windows, even when the computer is idle, particularly if the computer is connected to the Internet, or a network. DiskMagik can eliminate fragmentation in most cases, however small amounts of fragmentation will creep back in quickly. For continuous defragmentation, it is recommended to enable DiskMagik Proactive Defragmentation, available from the Configuration options or the Configuration wizard in the Help Menu. For a more complete understanding of fragmentation and how DiskMagik works to eliminate it, please study our fragmentation explanation page.
