DEFRAG is a system utility used to consolidate the fragmented files stored on the hard disk of a computer. The fragmented files are those files that are saved or stored in different locations of the hard disk. The tool arranges such files and stores them on the hard disk in contiguous blocks. The operating system can access these files at a faster rate than the fragmented ones. This utility can also be run on a computer through a command line interpreter.
