ScanDefrag 5.0 - Readme
http://blueorbsoft.com/
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
PURPOSE:
Run comprehensive computer maintenance from a controlled state.
Maintenance items include Microsoft's Disk Cleanup, ScanDisk/Chkdsk and Disk
Defragmenter, and Norton's Disk Doctor and SpeedDisk.
Can be run "on demand" or as a regularly scheduled task.
Item options are always under user control.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
REQUIREMENTS:
For use with Windows 98, 98SE, ME, XP and Server 2003 .
Not intended for use with Windows 95, NT, or 2000.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
INSTALLATION:
Download and run the setup program. ScanDefrag will unpack to a folder of
your choice. (ScanDefrag does not install any external libraries.)
Note: If you are currently using version 3.0 or higher you do not need to
uninstall first.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
OPERATION:
Run ScanDefrag.exe from explorer or its shortcut.
To configure ScanDefrag for the first time, run ScanDefrag and first
"Configure" any maintenance tools which you wish to run. Note that the
Microsoft tools that ScanDefrag will use are in configuration mode at this
time. This means that Disk Cleanup, Scandisk and Defrag will open and accept
user input. However, they will do no disk maintenance at this time.
Configure them to your preference, including the desired drives, and click
"Ok". If you "Cancel" a tool's configuration mode, then that tool's settings
will not be saved.
Once your selections are made, click "Save" to save your options and exit
the program, or click "Run" to have ScanDefrag restart Windows and run the
maintenance programs.
Note: Scanning and/or defragging a drive are disk intensive tasks. Depending
on the size of the drive, it could take hours. If the drive has never been
defragged then especially so. Subsequent defrag operations should be
noticeably quicker.
