How do i defragment my computer if i don have enough free space?
Imagine a shelf that is packed with books all in a haphazard manner. If you did not have any free space or very little free space and any other place to temporarily place books, its not possible to rearrange the scattered books. Similarly once the drive runs out of free space its difficult to put the fragmented files backtogether. However, there are third party tools which do it even with very less free space. Typically you need 15-22% free space for an efficient task. Hence its always good to keep a check on fragmentation levels, just like on your health, watch out for symptoms and make sure it doest grow beyond a certain limit You can try to burn files onto external devices, run a diskcleanup and free up space.
