Hover around the lower-left corner until the Start button comes up, then rightclick on it, select Run, and type: calc

Hi Jamesyk07,

You can use Search Charm to find apps in Windows 8. Just type "Defragment and Optimize your drives" at the search bar.

Hope you found this information helpful. Please do not hesitate to contact us for future inquiries.

Just a note that you can type the following into the Search Charm or Start Menu (Search Charm automatically opens up):

cleanmgr
defrag
calc

When the whole term matches it will show up. Or just press Win+R to open the Run command. There's also this superuser kinda menu that can be accessed when right-clicking the bottom left of the screen which has maintenance options.
