Just what the title says. Auslogics is now including conduit and search protect with disk defrag installer.
Of all things why did they team up with the conduit people ?![]()
Easy workaround. Auslogics has a portable version of the defragger. Use that, no nice installers to worry about.![]()
Your company should be ashamed of itself. You have bundled a known adware and browser hijacker into your once great product. Conduit and search protect is beyond malicious. As a result of this, not only have I stopped using your products or suggesting them to my customers, I have included in our weekly newsletter a warning against any auslogics products. I have included a suggestion to all IT administrators to add rules to their content filters blocking all auslogics domains as well as flagging email from your company as malicious.
I hope you soon come to your senses. This is truly a bad thing for the IT world to see your company go down the rabbit hole for the sake of a few dollars.
D7 uses the cmd line version of Piriform's in its auto mode; Nick's never claimed it as his own.I used to use it but have been using MyDefrag lately. My colleague prefers the D7 auto Defraggler.
Sure. Just because an OS says it's "acceptably defragged" doesn't mean it can't get done a little better. I usually run it till it's <5% so that, when I hand it back, it's as close to 'perfect' as I can manage. It won't stay that way for long but the goal is for them to remember how fast it was once I was done with it.I know we're not 'supposed' to need defraggers in Vista+ OSes but I find a lot of machines really do benefit from a good defrag.

Does running a 3rd Party Disk Defrag really help the system since after Vista? I always run Disk Defrag on XP machines, but now I don't bother. Am I stupid?

Officially? Who the hell knows? In my personal experience, third party tools run after work performed or initial setup or whatever, seem to help a little with performance. It's probably not necessary, but it's nice to give the machine back knowing it's been done. Plus, the built-in windows defragger takes forever to run. It's ok knowing it will keep up in the background in the future.
