can i run malware bytes and defraggler at the same time?

[roasted]

i thought of doing maintenance to my pc and leave malwarebytes running trough the night but i'd also like to also run defraggler so leaving the pc on is worth it, so can i do this, or should i leave the defraggler task for another day ?

It may take forever if something is accessing the hdd at the same time

Both shouldnt take that long

all that happens is you slow down both of them as there both going to use a lot of ram. your better off scanning for malware fist as it take less then 3 min then go to bed with defragler running when it done it will shut the pc off for you.

Depending on how you set Defraggler to run, it may or may not cause an issue. If you're trying to defrag your entire hard drive, that could cause an issue.

Honestly, it's best to just run everything one at a time.
