VoptXP Defrag Tool

[dhlucke]

I just noticed that they finally released a version for WinXP so I'm downloading it now. I can't tell you how it is, but the old version for Win98/Me was really good. Better than the built in Win version and better than Norton.

Let us know. I saw good things here about Diskeeper several months ago and
tried the demo. I liked it so well I bought it.

Hey, thanks for that heads up! I'll be sure to check that out.

Out of curiosity, do you think that Vopt would be better than Diskeeper, O&O Defrag, or Norton SpeedDisk? After you see how it works, do tell us.

Well it works and it's still damn quick (although my HD was pretty clean already). It also has other tools that are worth checking out.

I haven't used the first two in that list, but it's definitely better than norton and the built in windows version. It's small, tidy, quick, and it does the job quite nicely.

Try it out and let me know what you think compared to the other ones I've never used.

Hmm ... Now there is a thought: A fast working defrag tool. I've always just used whatever comes with Windows. Of course, whenever I defrag, I usually just start it before I go to bed and wake up in the morning to find it finished. So I'm not sure if faster would have much meaning to me, unless it was a <i>lot</i> faster. Maybe I'll try it though.

Has anyone ever had a bad experience caused from not running ScanDisk after running a defrag utility?

It's previous version was very, <b>very</b> fast. I think if you had fairly heavy fragmentation, it would take maybe 30 minutes at the most. But, if you schedule (to do it) everyday, it would only take like a minute or two. It would mean that you wouldn't have to leave it running overnight - unless you don't mind that kinda thing.

Nope. Then again, you should always do a scandisk before defragging.

Its a 32 bit defrag tool compared to the 16 bit ones found in the OS. I am trying it out on win2k. I have run across one issue and that is with the optomize swap file setting. Though not produceing a hard lock the utility does seem to stip responding. Let me know if anyone else has this problem. It is a shame if this is the case because that was one of the best features of Voptme, the ability to set your swapfile to the very begining of the disk ( were transfers are the fastest).

It's not what they tell you, its what they don't tell you!

Yeah, I used to do the same thing, but with this program you're basically done in 20 minutes max.
