Windows 10 optimize hard disc

[garyshorto]

From my laptop Control Panel, I've analyzed and now I'm optimizing the hard drive on my laptop.
How long will it take?
It's saying "running" and "Pass 6: 36% consolidated".
How many passes will it do?
Thanks

Welcome to the forums. I think it does at least 10. It does take a while.
