Schedule defragmentation at regular intervals
O&O Defrag - 41
Further settings for jobs
Run scripts before and after a job
Running batch commands before and after a job enables you, for example, to pause certain Windows services before
defragmenting and then continuing them afterwards. Files that are normally in use by other applications can now be
defragmented online. If you use O&O Defrag on a Microsoft Exchange or SQL-Server, you can pause these services
before defragmentation, optimize the drives and then automatically continue with the services. You no longer need to
create a script to do this.
Please note: All commands must exist and be capable of running on the target computer. All commands are run
under the SYSTEM username with the maximum system permissions.
Running scripts before a job
When this option is enabled, all the commands entered into the text field will be run before defragmentation. You can
also import an existing file and insert its contents into the text field.
To do so, simply click the Import button and select the desired file in the dialog box (.BAT, .CMD, or .TXT). Confirm
with OK.
