Will the WinXP defrag tool work on Windows 2000?

To the best of my knowledge, no, but I've never tried to make it.  How do you propose to install it?  It's an CP component - built in tool.

I'm wondering if you can just copy/paste defrag.exe (maybe other dependent files if I can figure out what they are).  The only problem for me is that I don't have a test Windows 2000 PC.
Hi!

A easier alternate - use DefragNT (free):

I've been using it on 2000 - works quite well.

DefragNT doesn't look like it supports NTFS in Win2k, does it?  If not, then it won't work for me as they are all using NTFS.

I will leave the following recommendation for this question in the Cleanup topic area:

Any objections should be posted here in the next 4 days. After that time, the question will be closed.
