fragmentation of computer files

[what..the?]

Since my pc preformed a fragmentation I have a home movie on my desktop which as been divided into two files with the same name but the small version only a few kb in size is a THM format? What is this can I remove it or is it required to play movie?

Thanks in advance

A THM file is just a Thumbnail file that is often used in clip-art lists etc...

I don't think it has anything to do with you defragmenting, the .THM file is the thumbnail preview of the movie, you can delete it and the movie will still play fine
