Quick easy question: Am I suppose to do something after I defrag a computer?

Question

I remember someone once telling me there was a second process that was to be done afterwards. I guess it must be something optional, as I can't remember what it was, but I'd still like to know. Thanks!

Answer 1

Virus check... but should be ok!!!

Answer 2

well i normally do disk clean up and defrag at the same time then once its done i restart my computer, and that always seems to help

Answer 3

Not that I'm aware of. You could perform a disk cleanup (but I would actually do that BEFORE defragging).

Answer 4

no you dont have to do anything! it may ask you if you want to restart the computer but i dont think this is necessary
