SarahofGaia Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I downloaded the portable zip archive, and when I extracted it, I saw there were four EXEs: Defraggler.exe Defraggler64.exe df.exe df64.exe I just want to use the portable version of Defraggler. Why are there four different variants, what are the differences between them, and which do I use?Thanks. What do zombie string theorists crave? Branes.

Moderators Nergal Posted July 28, 2015 Moderators Share Posted July 28, 2015 Df and df64 are command line (old school dos prompt) To just run defraggler run defraggler.exe it will forward you to defraggler64 (behind the scenes, you won't have to so anything) if you have a 64 bit machine ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

SarahofGaia Posted August 6, 2015 Author Share Posted August 6, 2015 I know what command line is. Haha. Thanks, though! As for the latter point, what if I run defraggler.exe on a 32b machine? What do zombie string theorists crave? Branes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted August 6, 2015 Moderators Share Posted August 6, 2015 It will run defraggler.exe and won't forward to the 64 ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

SarahofGaia Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 I just deleted the df.exe, df64.exe, and defraggler64.exe files, so that only the defraggler.exe file remains. (They're in the Recycle Bin, so I can restore them if needed.) Will I still be able to use Defraggler on both 32b and 64b machines? What do zombie string theorists crave? Branes.

Moderators Nergal Posted September 2, 2015 Moderators Share Posted September 2, 2015 I'm not sure but I don't think it'll run without the similar-bitrate command-line exe ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

SarahofGaia Posted September 4, 2015 Author Share Posted September 4, 2015 It's fine. I restored them from the Recycle Bin and just put them in a separate sub-folder. What do zombie string theorists crave? Branes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted September 4, 2015 Moderators Share Posted September 4, 2015 If it runs with them in a separate folder, then it'll run with them deleted. That's how I test things.

Moderators Nergal Posted September 10, 2015 Moderators Share Posted September 10, 2015 If you put them in a separate sub-folder, as you said in reply #7, and it ran with no issues, then deleting them should be fine.
