How to Turn DefragAll into a Run Command

This tutorial is an optional add on to How to Defrag Multiple Drives at once if you would like to run the command with ease using the Run Dialog box whenever you felt it necessary. Its only a small tutorial and will take you less then 5 minutes so lets get started.

I know this tutorial is very short and sweet, that's because it really is that simple anything that you would like to turn into a run command all you need to do is move it into the system32 folder then by typing the name of that file in the Run command box the program will run.

Important Do not play with any of the files/folder in the system32 folder unless you know what you are doing because you could damage your operating system. e.g don't delete anything!.



Step One

Click on Start and select Run
Or
Hold down the Windows key and press R

Start Menu with Run selected

Step Two

Type in System32 and Click OK

Run Command Window with system32 entered

Step Three

Now you just need to copy your DefragAll.bat file into the system32 folder

Step Four

Now you can use DefragAll as a run command by just typing
defragall (Case is not sensitive!) into the Run dialog box

That's All

You have just created a new run command that you are able to use when ever you need. Hopefully this will save you a little time in the future because I know most people don't like to clog up there desktop with icons and going through folders every time to run this program I felt was avoiding the point of my intention which was to make it very simple and quick!
