Hello,
after downloading and running defraggler 1.06 (portable), the drive map indicating the different blocks is in greyscale only, although the legend shows the correct colors (see screenshot attached). I've tested this on two systems, both running WinXP, one SP3 and one SP2. Any ideas? Defraggler 1.04 still works fine and in color!
Regards,
Thomas

You need to either "Analyze" the drive or begin "Defragmenting" the drive for it to see and report the state of the drive and it's blocks / sectors...
Hope that helps...
... that really worked - thanks a lot! I already tried to start an analysis or an defragmentation, but you have to wait until the analysis is complete before the colors are shown. That's different to earlier versions and therefor I didn't expect it to work this way (and have been not patient enough). Thanks again!

Not 100% sure on this... But that may have to do with the interactive drive map that shows the files in them when you click on the blocks-- Probably needs an analysis/defrag first to be able to function properly. Can anyone else back this up?

That's probably the case, though I can't confirm that. In any event, the interactivity of the drive map is well worth the required analysis to see drive state. I really like the new drive map, as it adds a lot of transparency to the sectors / blocks...
I'm glad I could help thomas09, I figured that was what you were experiencing, as that is different from previous releases.
