Hi all
I've just completed the Windows 10 2004 upgrade and I have noticed 2 issues.
This seem to only happen when Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Security and Maintenance initiates its automatic maintenance or if I select start maintenance.
This is concerning as it should never attempt to defrag an SSD.
My laptop is only a few months old and came with a PCIe SSD and Windows 10 1909 so there is no compatibility or lack of trim support issues obviously.
I have disabled scheduled weekly optimizations in the defrag/optimize tool which prevents it from attempting to defrag when the control penal maintenance attempts its maintenance when the computer is idle.
I want to let everyone know that this is happening so others are aware. My other computers that have the latest update are also doing it.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
The defrag finally completed in XP. It said it had done, but then carried on with what looked like a second pass, where again it stuck on 1% completed for ages. I guess that is the same process as on Windows 10 but it doesn't call the second pass "consolidation" as Windows 10 does.
Anyway, it eventually finished, and Windows 10 says the drive now doesn't need defragmentation, so I guess everything is OK.
seems that the last optional update solved the problem, i tested a few times and no problem anymore.
I'm not sure if the problem was there before the 2004 update, I never really paid much attention to it until I became aware of the recent issue with the defrag/TRIM system.
After a reboot it did say that the drive was 0% fragmented, so I supposed that was a good sign.
It passed chkdsk fine, that's the first thing I checked to make sure there was no corruption on the drive!
I have a dual boot system, with Windows 10 and Windows XP, and I've tried running the Windows XP defragger on the drive, and it said it was still quite fragmented, so I guess the Windows 10 one didn't actually do its job.
The Windows XP defragger is now defragmenting it (taking ages) and when it's finished I will try running the Windows 10 one again to see if the result is any different now the drive should actually be defragmented.
Thanks, Dave.
Was that always the case with version 2004 or just since the update?
Can you download any utility from the manufacturer to check the disk or run chkdsk /r command on the drive.
I've also installed the preview update, and yes, things do look a lot better.
I do however have a large capacity FAT32 formatted conventional drive which is still giving a problem.
It does the first opimising pass fine, although it takes ages, and then moves on to the "consolidating" phase.
This remains stuck on 1%. I've left it for hours, and it never moves on.
Anyone else seeing this? I don't know if it's because it's a FAT32 drive, but if it can optimise it, it should surely be able to complete the process!
Cheers, Dave.
