Looks like a solid update! Some of the features from the '08 ProPremier like the file sequencer seem to have made it to the '09 Pro version, along with 64 bit support for the Home version too. I shall download and give this new version a shot this weekend.

I've currently use '08 pro, and always liked Diskeeper the best; never had a single problem with it.

JKDefrag handles my defragmentation no issue. But that is of course because Vista handles Fragmentation very well anyway. No need to defrag more then once every six months or after a huge system cleanup, installationm, uninstallation party :p

im with you guys.... overall i prefer JKDefrag cause it's FREE and does it's job well enough without taking 10 years to defrag the system either after the initial defrag.

cause in my opinion for the average home user... paying for Defrag software is not worth it when FREE stuff does the job just as good.

JKDefrag might not appeal to some people who prefer a pretty interface or want options cause in order to select a specific drive you have to use switches... for example i use this... "C:\JkDefrag-3.36\JkDefrag.exe" -l "" C:\ .... which basically makes it so it dont keep a log file and it only defrag's my C drive... in general on first defrag run of JKDefrag it's recommended to use the "-a 7" switch in there to. after that you can run it in it's default state.

-a 7

Remind me what that switch does...

quote from JKDefrag's website... "Optimize by sorting all files by name (folder + filename)." = "-a 7" (without the " )

here's another quote...

" What is the best defragmentation/optimization strategy for me?

My advice for all computers is to run JkDefrag once with the "-a 7" optimization (sort by name), and from then on automatically every day with the default "-a 3" fast-optimize option. "

so basically run it once with "-a 7" and then future stuff just run it straight up as by default it does the "-a 3" for you automatically without any switches.

defragging: because some people still want to believe they're using fat32.

:laugh: Well timed!

I prefer Auslogics Defrag. Free and does as good a job as Diskeeper. Or at least I have never seen any sort of advantage or speed increase after running Diskeeper or Perfectdisk.

I though programmes like Diskeeper were preferred to progs like jk defrag because it works in the background keeping your disk from getting fragmented so you never have to run a defrag session that takes ages. However doesnt the built in defrag that comes with vista and Windows 7 do that too?

That is what I have been using for a year now. It's simple and light weight. Has anyone installed Perfectdisk on Win7? It seems like it has compatibility issues. Maybe the upcoming v10 will fix that.

When using the internet, there are always files being downloaded each time you view a page or watch a youtube video, ad these files eventually end up being deleted when you clear out the temp folder. There is no point in defragging these files at all in realtime as it is just a waste cpu power.

There is a built in degrag for windows, but they are not as good as other programs out there.

Its amazing to me that we are at Windows 7 and they still havent included a good built in defrag programme!! Why the hell spend so much time making built in media players etc and updating Paint! but dont bother with a programme to help keep your system running smoothly!!!

    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
    • Just saw a news report of a Waymo driving into a flooded road.
    • Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.
