When I click on disk defrag from system tools I get an error message that MMC cannot open the file C:/windows32/dfrag.msc

Welcome to geeks to go.

I am not sure if you have malware or not based on the location you listed.

The defrag for XP is located in C:\WINDOWS\system32

Go to start-> run and type in dfrg.msc and then hit ok

What happens?
