No, your computer will just run a bit slower.

Is it necessary to really do this defrag. of the C Drive?

Maybe this may help. . .

Open a Command Prompt Window as Administrator

Enter this command

Defrag C: /A

This will perform an Analysis on your C: drive and tell you whether Windows thinks it's fragmented enough to need attention.

If your system recommends you defragment the disk, run this command

Defrag C: /H /U

This will defragment your C: volume. The /H tells it to hurry. The /U tells it to update you on it's progress.

FD.

P.S. With today's speedy disks, far, far, far, more time has been wasted running defragging software than has ever been lost because of a defragmented disk. And it wouldn't surprise me if even more time was lost debating the issue.
