system defrag

My Windows 10 SYSTEM is 15% fragmented and should be optimized. When I click on optimize it very quickly runs down the percentage numbers as though it's doing it's job. But then it settles again at 15%. I already tried a manual defrag command. That didn't help. All my other drives are perfect.

What type of drive is it? Make and model....

Before changing the picture too much, it would be nice to know the hardware.

Coned1022, what kind of drive is it? A screenshot of the Defrag screen would also be helpful.

I have not been using the built-in disk defrag for years. So, I can't comment on it.

I use Ausloics disk Defrag to do the job. It is a free program.

Give it a try. See if you like it.

Agree fully with you there
So fast and does an excellent job

My computer is an HP TouchSmart. System Type: 64-bit OS, x 64-based processor. If that's not what you wanted to know, please let me know where I can find that info

If you could take a screenshot of the screen where you are optimizing your disk drives and still see the 15%, that would be helpful. Follow these two tutorials on how to take a screenshot and how to post the picture here in your reply. Your screenshot should look similar to this:

Did the defrag using auslogics.com. Still have the same problem. Here is the print screen of the defrag screen

Ok, there's your answer. That is a reserved system partition. With no drive letter. It cannot be defragged. It's small, about 100MB. Just ignore it.
