February 18th, 2009 - Wizcode LLC announced the public beta of Wizcode Defragment Mobile, storage card and RAM defragmenter and optimizer for Windows Mobile.
Wizcode Defragment Mobile can defragment files and folders on the storage card of your Windows Mobile device and optimize folder performance by re-sorting the directory entries of each folder. You will notice dramatically increased perfomance especially in applications that list a large number of files like file explorers, image viewers etc. Zero fragmentation is also essential for any data recovery procedures you may attempt
The new Defragment Mobile is based on previously announced Evolution framework and the Wizcode FATFS library.
Below is the summary of features in the current version:
- Check fragmentation - will report the summary file and folder fragmentation and will optionally report directory entry sorting issues.
- Defragment - eleminates file and folder fragmentation, improves overall storage card performance.
- Sort directory entries - by keeping the folder contents sorted there can be a significant gain in performance/start up of many applications that sort file lists internally.
- Defragment service - automatically defragment storage cards when the device is rebooted.
- Exclusive card access - storage cards are now locked when being defragmented which virtually removes the possibility of a conflict with another application trying to access the storage card meanwhile.
- RAM optimization - heap defragmentation and optimization will also reclaim unused RAM from running applications.
- Error checking - volumes will be checked for errors before defragmentation (can be turned off although not recommended)
