WinContig

WinContig is an easy-to-use stand-alone defragmentation tool that doesn't create any installation directories or Registry entries on your computer. Its purpose is to quick defragment files without the need to defragment the whole disk. WinContig supports FAT32 and NTFS file systems and it works with Hard Disks and SSDs...

In addition, WinContig allows you to group files into profiles, and also it accepts a number of optional command-line switches that you can use to control how the program operates.
WinContig is a standalone executable, and it doesn't require any installation process or additional DLLs. In order to start using it, just extract the contents of the ZIP archive to any folder you like, and run it.

Most defragmentation programs 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 has been designed specifically to meet the needs of users who focus mainly on files and folders rather than an entire disk.

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

Features:

Portable: WinContig is a standalone executable, and it doesn't require any installation process or additional DLLs. All the files required to run WinContig, including any settings, reside in a single folder.

Very fast and Reliable: Defragmentation and analysis processes are based on kernel-mode interface library functions. Thus, performing defragmentation process is safe and there is no risk of losing data.

Defragment single files: Specifically designed to defragment single files or entire folders without the need to defragment the whole disk.

Customizable interface: Make WinContig function in a way that fits your needs.

Check disk integrity: Check disks for file system errors and get some useful information out of them.

Support for command-line switches: WinContig accepts a number of optional command-line switches that you can use to control how the program operates.

Remove unnecessary files: Delete temporary files before defragmentation.

Multilanguage: WinContig is available in more than 25 languages thanks to the volunteers' contributions from all over the world.
