Start/All Programs/Accessories/System Tools/Disk Defragmenter
but the one that comes with windows is rubbish, 3rd party disk defragmenter like Defraggler are much better. True, the Windows program is just too slow and may not be able to defrag thoroughly on heavily fragmented drives. Besides it needs atleast 15% free space. I recommend Diskeeper. Its totally automatic and has advanced options like low free space and system file defrag.
Yes. All Windows based file systems require periodic defragmentation for optimal performance. FAT, FAT32 and NTFS file systems all require defragmentation.

The seven steps to defragmentation typically include: 1) Assessing the need for defragmentation by checking the disk's fragmentation level; 2) Backing up important data to prevent loss; 3) Closing all open applications to release system resources; 4) Running the defragmentation tool, which reorganizes fragmented files; 5) Monitoring the progress of the defragmentation process; 6) Completing the process and verifying that the disk has been optimized; and 7) Restarting the computer to ensure all changes take effect.
Depends on the file system.

reorganizing the disk Defragmentation actually reorganizes the disk.
Yes, you can cancel the defragmentation process before it is complete. It is probably a good idea to re-run the defragmentation at some point in the future, but failure to do so will not harm your computer.

The first process during defragmentation is analyzing the hard drive to identify fragmented files and their locations. This analysis helps the defragmentation tool determine the most efficient way to reorganize the files on the disk for improved performance.
