| Another Way to Show Fragmentation Instead of using DEFRAG, you can check individual files or groups of files to see if they are fragmented. To do so, type in 'CHKDSK filenames', where 'filenames' is a filename or group of filenames you would like to check.
For example, to check the GAMES directory for fragmentation in *.DAT files, type in this command.
CHKDSK C:\GAMES\*.DAT
CHKDSK will give you a report of each file's non-contiguous blocks. The more non-contiguous blocks a file has, the more fragmented it is.
