O&O Defrag 10 Pro automated defrag not working?


Question

Hi,

I've been using O&O Defrag 10 Professional for a while on Vista and I have the "OneButtonDefrag" activated.. However, I'm not sure it's working, I'm not sure the defragging is automated... How do I check that? I mean, I didn't manually defrag for a while and when analyzed the volume, it was quite high and I wasn't expecting that because I thought that automatic defragmentation was enabled and working. I opened Vista Task Scheduler and tried to look for something about O&O "OneButtonDefrag" but didn't find anything...

How do I make sure that it's enabled/working and/or how do I enable it if it's not enabled? (although the button is activated)

@Quad Master

First, that's no solution... I hate it when people say to use different software to "workaround" the problem they are asking help for... And second, I prefer O&O better and I'm not going back to Diskeeper anytime soon...

@BlueFlame

I have a few auto logs created on February 7 and some today, but in between only reports from manual defragmentation. I'll keep an eye on the reports for the time being to see if they get created... Thanks.

P.S: This isn't related to the problem in the topic but to O&O. Every time I start O&O Defrag, the window isn't maximized and it starts drawing out of screen. Does any one have this issue, any way to fix it? It's like it isn't saving the window size/position and restore it when I start it again... Dunno why, it doesn't happen with any other application.

Actually I don't have it enabled because I don't like the idea to have it always in the tray when it's not doing nothing. I like how Diskeeper works regarding the tray though... I mean, the tray icon will visible only when some defragmentation is taking place, and not all the time... If only O&O tray icon was like that, I would enable it... I'm going to enable for the time being though, to check if I notice some automatica defragmentation.

I've just checked the reports and there are a bunch of (auto) reports for the last few days.

But now that I tried to enable the Task Tray Control, I don't know why but it doesn't want to appear on the tray... I tried to enable/disable countless times logging off and rebooting between but it doesn't work... Any thoughts?

Use MSConfig to see if you have a startup entry for ?oodtray.exe? file in C:\WINDOWS\system32. If not reinstall O&O or create a shortcut for oodtray.exe in the Startup folder.

Thanks.

Don't understand why the entry doesn't get created when selecting the option in O&O settings dialog:s. :s I better reinstall this thing when I get the time.
