Users who want to defragment particular files without processing an entire drive can use WinContig for that task. The program accepts individual files through its interface and identifies which ones it can defragment.
How do you choose files to defragment?
Drag files into WinContig's interface to add them to the work list. The program checks which items it can process and which it cannot, so the selection is visible before defragmentation begins.
WinContig works with individual files, letting users focus on specific items such as a project file or a frequently opened document. Files already stored in contiguous disk space are left in place.
Does WinContig need to be installed?
No installation is needed, and WinContig does not modify the Windows registry. It can run from removable storage, which suits a workflow where the program is carried between computers.
Can you change the program language?
English is the default language. Open the Language menu and use its Options entry to switch to Spanish.
