I did not use defragging.
I just used the shrinkage util and it worked.
I think the shrinkage util defrags and moves
files/dirs as well. Not sure how it does that.
My guess is that whatever part of the windows kernel
assumes that certain dirs are at a particular location,
it knows how to change that to the new location so
kernel can access it.
