AVG tune up

I am trying AVG's free tune up trial, I have run the maintenance and it say's one hard disk heavily fragmented I have run fix, and it has used over 35GB's on my hard drive, I ran maintenance again 2 hours later and it said one hard disk heavily fragmented, why has it not fixed the hard drive on the first maintenance.

Hi Edward,
Do you have at least 15% free space? Also please make sure that there are no hight hard drive operations which may prevent it.
Thanks

Hi Edward,I run the 1-click maintenance program within PC Tuneup nightly.I have an external hard drive as well as the inbuilt one.If the hard disc on the external drive is heavily fragmented,1-click maintenance will defrag it,but it may return a few days later.What I do then is use the defrag option within the main PC Tune Up menu.I don't know what the difference is between the two defrag options,but I have found if you use the main menu option,the disc remains unfragmented for far longer.Hope this may help You
