I’ve used JKDefrag for a long time and it works great.

Like Tom said, use the old version 3.x. It uses the Ms defrag API, so it’s very safe.

The previous version, jkdefrag, works great and I see no reason to chnage to the new version.

Bonjour, bel effort pour nous proposer des logiciels de ce type toujours plus performants, encore que là lorsqu’on n’est pas versé dans la langue anglaise et comme pour beaucoup de logiciels utilitaires qui semblent intéressants l’aide proposée n’est malheureusement pas traduite en français. De ce fait le subjectif ou l’intuitif n’est parfois pas toujours suffisant pour exploiter au mieux les capacités des logiciels proposés ce qui est fort regrettable. Néanmoins merci pour nous offrir ce type de logiciels en free.

While I really like the new flexibility of the scripts, MyDefrag really needs, at a minimum, a basic GUI to allow selection of a particular script to run on which drives, and to at least launch Notepad to edit a script. It’s ridiculous to have to customize command lines to run a particular shortcut, and manually find and edit the scripts.

@turu

It is still portable, you can copy and use main executable wherever.

But I agree – I’d like to see simple archive distribution and screensaver mode without going through install back.

and It is not portable anymore… :-(

Possible to use it just after download made this program for me as a choice though…

I’m not happy. The author has built this huge and complex script system for some unknown reason (self-fellatio?) making the program impossible to use. The previous command line parms had been documented over time and were understandable w/o a lot of work. Now you need to learn a new script language just to use a simple disk defrag system.

This is an example why engineers need managerial oversight! Sheese.

Actually command line parameters got reduced to almost nothing. Now all stuff is controlled by new script system.

I wonder if there will be as many GUIs for this one. Maybe for basic settings, but fully implement all of new script options in GUI would be tough.

The beta version was crashing quite often. Hope they have corrected it.
