SweX 870 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) Hi Chris. When I tried to download the free Defraggler from here: hxxp://www.piriform.com/defraggler/download ESET detected a "potentially unsafe application"= the bundle, is that what you're seeing too? Try this Chris..... Go here scroll down and download the "Slim" installer, do you get a warning from ESET on this one as well? hxxp://www.piriform.com/defraggler/builds Edited February 18, 2014 by SweX Link to post Share on other sites

Arakasi 548 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) Defraggler is decent, and it will use the same technologies to consolidate your files that the windows defrag uses, with exception of extra features and a graphical representation of what your drive looks like, which i really like a lot.

SweX 870 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Thank you Swex it works with the slim installer.Thank you for your help and support.Is piriform defraggler any good?Thanks for everything Great Chris. Sorry but I can't say if it's good or better than any other defragger, personally I use the built-in defragger it works fine for me. But if you like it and it works fine for you then you can continue to use it if you want of course. Link to post Share on other sites

Hi !, I agree the windows defrag might run more efficiently under windows. Keep in mind Defrag is not a Windows function, but a 'hard drive' function. It simply consolidates the data on the drive to help it operate more smoothly and extend life. Link to post Share on other sites

Hello Chris. Sounds good, the way I look at it is if a function that's built-in like the defragger in this case works OK then I feel no need to look for a 3'rd party product that basically does the same thing. Although I can't really say the same about the built-in MSE/Windows Defender heh. Link to post Share on other sites
chrlshlmn 36 Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 Yes you are so true about the built-in MSE/Windows Defender.I see that some 3rd party can do more harm than good.I know some are decent though.Thank you very much. Link to post Share on other sites
The PIT 1 Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Does the same with ccleaner as well. Link to post Share on other sites
webyourbusiness 4 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 google for the "slim" version - ie, "defragglr slim" or "ccleaner slim" - that version of the installer does not have the toolbar, and will not be detected by ESET as a Potentially Unwanted Application or PUA.

The PIT 1 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Seems to be fixed now. Guess Google grumbled about their toolbar being identiifed as malware. Link to post Share on other sites
