[Defraggler says my laptop is 50% fragged?]

uikz... either one should we trust... but which one?

 

Smart Defrag says it is not even close to being that fragged.. what's up?

[CCleaner has damaged my mp3 pc software]

c33, check out the documentation page.

 

look at wt actually it's used for~ it won't cause the problem! it's like "how on earth a sponge can destroy a car" (not really equal but i think; this example can be used... lol! )

 

Its not a case of im not following what you say . Its a case of WILL it work.. I thought CCleaner was a means to an end and it was a savour for a short while but then messed up my system . I dont know what reformatting is and how will it help in relation to restoration of my driver?

[CCleaner has damaged my mp3 pc software]

hohoho.. relax dude~!

 

hello c33... there are many possibilities for you to get that kind of problem. CCleaner won't effect your computer except of one thing.. cleaning the registry. most of the times, it works well but sometimes, it might not. make sure you make a backup of your registry before you clean those data. other than this, i can't find any other reason. it should be something happen in your PC.

 

Then if you're saying that CCleaner is not what caused your problem... THEN WTF ARE YOU POSTING THIS THREAD ????

 

PS: You're contradicting yourself,

1- you ran CCleaner

2- you then connected ur mp3 player

3- it didnt work, so you put the blame on CCleaner

4- and now you're on this forum... waiting for an answer...

 

 

Frikin trolls, i swear...

 

ps: i've more than 20 apps in my PC which include media player and etc... it works well and u know wt...~ i never make any backup of my registry coz i trust it and it never give any problem to my PC.

[Firefox and Google Chrome.]

hmmm... maybe yes and maybe not~ there are quite a number of times IE experienced flaws in its security.

 

Chrome wasn't the first browser to separate tabs - Internet Explorer was. I think we can trust Microsoft about security.

[Firefox and Google Chrome.]

i still prefer to use ff~ i've a lot of things to do and can't think of which one is better... the only thing i know, which one can help me to reduce my work... the answer is ff since there are sooOOoooOOOoooo many plugins offer~

[Years since i had to work out gravity/speed/time (help)]

i'm not good in physics... but as i know:

is falling time related to object's weight?

 

i'm not sure coz i'm not really remember all these stuffs... but if it's no, simply:

t = 100 / 9.81

t = 10.194s

a 1000kg object falling from 100m

 

what would be the formula????

 

 

 

got 3'bs in science gcse <-- fail

 

 

edit * im told it's 9.81 m/s

[Okay, I give up....]

hmmm...~ i don't think so... basically, those defragglers do the same thing; fix fragmentation in file system.

 

yeah~ it looks like people who hv a lot of data will trade off with time to do defragmentation. but the result can be seen much clear as those milliseconds u said will be in seconds for those files. that's why, we are adviced to defrag at least once in a week... not everyday or once in a month. this is to make sure the defrag process will become faster...

 

I think Defraggler is pretty good about compacting files and putting them all at the front end of the drive. This is a big improvement over the built-in Windows defragger but not as flexible as some that allow customized placement of files.

 

Custom placement isn't as critical if your drive is fairly empty. If it's fairly empty all your files wind up on the fast tracks regardless of their order. Maybe if they were arranged in a particular order you would get an increase of a millisecond or two but not enough to concern most people.

 

So Defraggler, as it is, seems like a good choice for those who don't have a lot of data but if the drive is very full I'm not sure how much good it does. "Optimization" is a good idea but from my experience those free defraggers that offer it don't work very well anyway.

ahakz~! i love using smilies... lol!

 

anyway, i hv removed my CCleaner and installed a new copy. now, it works well... maybe something was happened when i upgraded my app before... i think so...

 

Too many Smillees XD. Anyway, if you are going to do that to your hard drive, it is going to die soon by making many writes.

[A Bug Found In Latest CCleaner Version]

yeah~! I'm sure... nvm... i'll try remove my current CCleaner and install a new copy i'll let u know by tomorrow

 

Worked as expected, you sure it's looping? As the reasons i stated above.

 

If you take a look in settings there is a chkbox called wipe MFT free space.

[Defraggler is lying to me...]

hmmm... the same thing ever happened to me. but it was only small different between the numbers.

 

as i remember, I ever faced the same problem once~ but no more happen up till today

 

I'm a huge fan of CCleaner and have been quite pleased with Defraggler until this evening. I defragged my hard drive using Defraggler and was told that my total fragmentation was 0% (and something like 11 MB in fragmented files). Awesome!

 

On a whim, I set Defraggler to analyze the drive again, and I got, well, quite different results. From 0% fragmentation (11 MB of fragmented files), I went to 10% fragmentation (and over 1 GB of fragmented files). In the space of a few minutes.

 

What on earth happened? I set Defraggler to defrag the drive again. Currently I'm at 89% of task completion with still 7.6 GB of fragmentation.

 

I don't get it. Has anyone else had this sort of issue?

 

Thanks for any help you can be.

 

Much love to Piriform still.

those files I deleted were no more needed... that's why I wanted to remove them. even those files didn't need to be really protected, I hate people view any of my files.

 

5 years in jail?! I don't want to be in jail just because of a few characters of password

 

about the bug... I checked my app to automatically terminate once the cleaning process done. For a simple cleaning job (cookies & etc.), it'll terminate as I asked it to do so. the problem will only happen if I check WFS. as usual, it'll first start by cleaning those unused data (cookies & etc.) before it starts doing WFS.

 

Actually, WFS works fine... the only problem is the app will start again doing WFS once the previous WFS process reaches 100% (by right, it should stop). because of the system keep on doing the same process again and again, the app will not going to terminate since it's still consider as still running a process. maybe you can try it by yourself.

 

I'm running Windows Vista in my box; in case you need this information.

 

If your wiping free space weekly, obviously you are concerned about sensitive data you are removing.

 

WFS does but unnecessary strain on a HD. Either way if you really are concerned why not keep the files in a encrypted archive?

 

Could end up spending 5 years in jail under terrorism laws for failing to hand over the key but at least your data will be secure lol

 

As for the bug please can you clarify so i understand better,

 

wipe free space loops if close when finished is checked???

[A Bug Found In Latest CCleaner Version]

ahakz! not too concern until wipe the entire HDD after deleted only one file that is not concern... that's crazy i guess.. lol! i just use that function once a week...

 

actually, i'm using Recuva which works on the other hand around... so, i don't feel like i really delete the file from my computer. that's why i prefer to schedule wiping the entire HDD at least once a week.

 

anywhere.. back to my point starting this thread. Is it really a bug in the latest CCleaner or maybe (who knows...) CCleaner has been implemented some algorithms so that one's HDD will really be cleared from unused data?

 

So for one deleted file you could be wiping free space for your entire drive.

 

If you're that concerned about erasing the files just securely delete them in the first place - then you don't need to wipe all that free space!

Giving my HDD an early death? are you sure? As i know, when one deletes a file, the file will disappear from the OS... hwever, the bits contain in it are still located in clusters in my HDD. By wiping free space, we are actually remove those unused bits from our HDD. Is it possible to shorten my HDD's life? please fix me if i'm wrong..

 

ident: errrmmm... quite often... once a week, i'll wipe free space.

 

Yes Wipe freespace should NOT be on your default cleaning your going to give your HDD an early death

 

 

 

(WFS should be moved to Tools FOR this reason)

[A Bug Found In Latest CCleaner Version]

Hey guys

 

I'm not sure whether it was a problem or my CCleaner was doing something else. In the latest version (Version 2.28.1091) which I downloaded around last week or last 2 weeks ago, I found that my CCleaner will not stop after I wiped free space. I prefer to set my program to automatic terminate once the job done. However, I started to realize the problem when my computer hung after I leave it for a night. After I met the same for couple times, I watched the wiping process and saw my CCleaner keep on wiping free space even the job already done. it works like an infinite loop lol!
