Cobra File Defrag is a useful utility that performs file as well as disk based defragmentation. Cobra File Defrag is a bit different from other defragmentation tools that work on an entire disk or individual drives because it allows you to use an Explorer style screen, and see defragmentation of every file folder on each of your disks. Each fragmented file or folder can be individually defragmented, as well as an entire disk. The program will also allow you to defragment what you want file by file or folder by folder rather than being forced to defragment a whole drive as with conventional tools. Cobra File Defrag employs an innovative technique to reduce future fragmentation by moving file blocks into fragmented free space on the drive.

Cobra File Defrag supports FAT, FAT32, NTFS, Windows compression, Windows Explorer style interface, defrags individual folders and files, and also enables you to defrag an entire disk. The program is easy to use, and you can see spread of fragmentation. One of the many benefits of this program is the fact that it includes or comes with a user guide. The user guide for instance is very comprehensive, and easy to use. However, it is also important that defragmentation is only carried out after reading the guide.
