Hello,

Try this 1

1) Try the defragmentation in "Safe Mode".

When you switch ON your laptop, start tapping the "F8" key to get

"Advanced Boot Options" ( if boot menu appears, press "Esc" key and keep

tapping the F8 key)

Select the option "Safe Mode" and press Enter.

2) If the problem still exists then

Right-click on that drive --> Properties --> Click on "Tools" tab --> Under "Error-

checking", click on "Check Now" button.

In "Check Disk" window, select "Automatically fix system file error" and "Scan for

and attempt recovery of bad sectors" options and click on "Start" button.

After completion of the above process, you can try the defragmentation.

Good Luck
