Answer:

Defragmentation program or software is a program that rearranges the fragmented files in the hard drive to make them contiguous such that files are read from and written to the hard drives faster because the read/write head moves over a shorter distance to read/write

By defragmenting the files on an hard drive, the time it takes to load a program or file is reduced as the number of times data has to be searched for during the loading process is reduced

Example of a defragmentation program is the Disk-Defragmenter built into Windows
