Defrag stopped working!!!
This is a discussion about Defrag stopped working!!! in the Windows Software category; Everything was working just fine, until I tried installing the new version of Executive Software's Diskkeeper. During the install it said that it couldn't start some service and that the install will be aborted.
Everything was working just fine, until I tried installing the new version of Executive Software's Diskkeeper. During the install it said that it couldn't start some service and that the install will be aborted. So I aborted and now whenever I try entering the Windows defrag program I get the following error:
Snap-in failed to initialize.
Name: Disk Defragmenter
CLSID: {43668E21-2636-11D1-A1CE-0080C88593A5}
Anyone else had this problem and know how to fix it? Or know of any other defrag programs for 2000? I really need a defrag!

Yes, I do have this problem before. The Executive Diskeeper didn't uninstall properly. I couldn't get back my original defragmenter. Well, I installed O&O Defrag and it starts to defrag again.

Hmmm, Diskeeper 5 is out in two versions - you need to make sure you get the W2k version. The file I have 'upgrades' the Diskeeper Lite that comes with the retail W2k to the full version of Diskeeper 5.
