Disk defragmenter no longer opens
So a few days ago I kept getting an error about about hard drive consistency after using disk defragmenter an hour or two before my next system restart. Once I restarted I kept getting this error: Windows needs to check the hard drive for consistency. It kept freezing at 1 sec until I would reboot and randomly keep pressing buttons on the keyboard until it went past the error checking.
I was finally able to get past this by running windows 7 error checking utility on next reboot since it said it wouldn't work while windows was actively doing something.
The error is gone, but now disk defragmenter does not open
No matter which way I try to launch it
accessories\system tools\ run as administrator
my computer\right click on c: and choose properties\tools\disk defragmenter
This very useful program doesn't open up now for some reason. Please help me fix the launch problem with disk defragmenter. I use it quite often, because I do video authoring and I need to defrag the drive after a big project.
