Schedule defragmentation at regular intervals
O&O Defrag - 39
Here you can specify that a job should not be run if certain other programs are currently being executed. These pro-
grams could include imaging programs, a virus scanner, or even games. For this, click the plus sign and select the pro-
grams in the browser window.
Energy
Jobs can also be scheduled to run only if the computer is working from a main power supply, which is very useful when
using notebooks.
If a computer is in standby mode whenever a job is scheduled to start, the job cannot be executed. Here you can also
set to reactivate the computer from the standby mode to successfully run a job.

Further job settings
Under Settings in the job dialogue you can influence the default behavior of different drive types during the job
execution.
Check drives before defragmentation and cancel if errors exist
You can have O&O Defrag check the integrity of your drives before a defragmentation. If O&O Defrag finds an error on
one of your drives, the defragmentation will not be run (for safety reasons). Checking the drives corresponds with the
Windows chkdsk function, yet, it only can run scans in the read-only mode and thus not correct errors. In case of error,
you need to run the chkdsk command manually.
