Consolidating folders

[smoker1963]

Is there a way of specifying a particular folder and sub-folders to be put in the Fast section of the disk?

I'm particularly thinking of game folders that need fast access when gaming.

Also, can folders be preferentially written to the same track or group of neighbouring tracks to ensure speedy access?

Whatever the answer, thanks for a great utility and may it become more powerful over time!

Checkout this user interface. It has an option to sort by last used http://www.emro.nl/freeware/ . It makes things easy for us that aren't into all the command prompt and code stuff.

I forgot this. To save others some frustration there is a minor bug with saving the log file. Pick a place that DOES NOT have any spaces in it like C:\WINDOWS\Temp  I emailed  Emiel about this Fri so he knows about it. If you don't do this you will wind up with a document file on C and each time you run it will create another causing an error on reboot with multiple files of the the same name. In my case this multiple file error also caused an error with Comodo firewall.

JkDefrag v4 will have a much more flexible argument interface (a small scripting language) that will make it possible to do such fine-grained placement. You can achieve the same with v3, but it will take a long time. First move all files to the end of the disk with "-a 6", then move the files and directories that you want at the beginning of the disk by simply specifying them on the commandline (for example "jkdefrag c:/games/*", and finally move all the rest, excluding the games files with "jkdefrag -e c:/games/*".
