I see there are multiple ways to defrag a hard drive using GP. Which is best?

what did was:

action

update

task

name	defrag
run	defrag.exe
arguments	/c
scheduled task runs @ specified time	enabled

schedule

1. @ 9:00 on day 10 of every month. task starts on 10/9/2012

settings

delete task if not scheduled run again	no
stop task if computer ceases idle	no
don't start task if computer running on batteries	enabled
stop task if battery mode begins	enabled
wake computer run task	enabled

commonhide

options

stop processing items on extension if error occurs on item	no
remove item when no longer applied	no
apply once , not reapply	no i rather put in scheduled taks , have work on xp, vista , 7 machines. better alternative. also, there way specify local admin account on local pc run portion?

hi,

if users not defaulted local admins, can use startup script instead. however, using gpp specifying account run schedule task recommended.
if don't specify account in "run as", task run in logon user's context.
run portion, apologize misunderstanding question, if can make sure clients have same admin account (local admin, same password), can specify local admin account task.

best regards,

cicely
