What went wrong?<br />

Hi, I guess I closed my last thread too soon. &nbsp;I have setup defrag.exe to auto run via Scheduled Tasks, but I cannot find a log that tells me how much it was fragmented or how long it took to defrag, etc. &nbsp;Is there a switch or parameter I can use on defrag.exe to make it dump a log of the activities of the auto defrag?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance.<br />

How can I create a activity log of the command-line defrag.exe?
