MyDefrag 4.1.2 Final

MyDefrag is a disk defragmenter and optimizer (a maintenance utility to make your harddisk faster) for Windows 2000, 2003, XP, Vista, 2008, and for X64. It is freeware, no time limit, fully functional, no advertisements. Fast, low overhead, with many optimization strategies, can handle floppies, USB disks, memory sticks, and anything else that looks like a disk to Windows. Included are a set of easy to use scripts for end users, a scripting engine for demanding users, a screensaver, and a combined Windows plus commandline version that can be scheduled by the Windows task scheduler or for use from administrator scripts.MyDefrag is extremely solid because it is based on the standard defragmentation API by Microsoft, a system library that is included in Windows 2000, 2003, XP, Vista, and 2008. Most defragmenters are based on this API, including the free defragmenter that comes with Windows and many commercial defragmenters. Basically all MyDefrag does is send “move this file to that location” commands to the API. The API is part of the operating system and can safely move almost any file on the disk, without risk and while the computer is in full use.

What’s New in version 4.1.2:

Deleted the LowMemoryUsage() setting. The program no longer caches the full paths of regular files. but still caches directories.
Added a new defragmentation algorithm, the old algorithm is now available as Defragment(Fast).
The list of fragmented files in the logfile will now show the count of wrap-around fragments, instead of the count of fragments.
Fixed a bug that would cause the “MyDefrag.debuglog” file to be created even if the “-d 0″ commandline parameters was specified.
Added the SortByNewestDate() fileaction.
Fixed a bug that prevented MyDefrag from processing files that were encrypted by another userid than the userid that was running MyDefrag.
Fixed a bug in the AddGap() fileaction. It created gaps that were too big.
Added the IgnoreWrapAroundFragmentation setting.
Gaps are now also skipped by the wrap-around fragmentation analyzer.
Added the FastFill(WithShuffling) option.
Added some code to protect against circular folders.
Made some changes in how the screensaver will stop in various circumstances.
Changed the way that the !RunTime! macro is calculated.
Fixed a bug that could cause an infinite loop on very full harddisks when trying to move files out of the way (vacate).
Enlarged the width of short numbers from 7 to 11 characters.
