  1. If you read the article I sent you, then I cannot understand why you would even still have Iobit.rar on your pc never mind using it. It is possible that I am not understanding what you mean by .rar. If you could explain better what the.rar is and what you want to do with it. I would like to help you but you must give more detail. I have helped users with ransomware before.
  2. I suggest you have a look at this.........https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/741190/derohe-ransomware-distributed-through-fake-iobit-one-year-free-license-key-promo/page-2
  3. Can you be more specific with your question. "Can I do something with this?" does not tell us much.
  4. I agree. I have already made the same suggestion (which was ignored) in a previous post...
  5. You never know. Maybe Iobit will take it on board.
  6. The simple answer is that this is how the programmers decided to create the program. The .dbd format is used by many programs. It is simply a way of utilising a database. As to what you can do to change it..........you have already done all you can by bringing it to the attention of Iobit. Personally, I think that if you want to use Driver Booster but don't want it sitting on your machine, then the easiest thing to do is to download the Driver Booster installer and save it in a folder. Then you can install DB and use it. Then uninstall it. You can reinstall it anytime with the saved installer.
  7. Of course you can discuss it or continue the thread.
  8. I will caution you as to your behaviour when using the Forum. Disrespect will not be tolerated. We don't get paid for this, but give our time freely to assist others. Yes, I read your post. Obviously, you Do need further instructions.....otherwise you would not be asking the question. It shows clearly in the information I sent that it is necessary to install Driver Booster in order to run the offline package. This is because the package is created as a Driver Booster file, and so only Driver Booster can read it. If you had read the Product Manual before using the program, you would have seen this.
  9. See here....https://www.iobit.com/en/knowledge-offline-driver-updater-instructions-293.php?from=db&to=offdrv&name=db&ref=db8&lan=&type=pro&ver=8.0.2.183 And here......https://www.iobit.com/product-manuals/db-help/#Scan-Update
  10. Most sensible people would read the Product manual...before driving the car. I assume most sensible people would also read the Poduct Manual before using new software. I do not understand what you are asking here. It is quite clear in the Product Manual. Sorry you see it that way. I was simply performing my function as a Moderator by clarifying some details. Strange that you should highlight this matter, when I had to delete another of your posts (status) because you included your contact details including a phone number. This is a breach of the Forum rules and is a banning offence. So I gave you a pass on it this time, because I assumed that as you did not read the Product Manual before using the software, that you also did not read the Forum rules before posting. Now you have no excuse for mis-using either the software or the Forum.
  11. How big is your drive....if it is 500 GB or 1TB....then 400mb's is not going to show up....it is too small.
  12. Thank you for your feedback. Always welcome. There are however some areas that require comment. While the explanations under the functions are sparse they are only designed as a hint. If you go to the Product Manual which is in the Settings Menu, you will get a detailed description of the functions. I think it is fair to say that most software programs either do not give you even a sparse explanation under the function or none at all. As for getting charged for downloading "More Optimization Tools".....You would be told in the toolbox section if there were any additional charges. So...no, you do not get charged extra. Iobit decided to make it necessary to downlod these extra Tools, in order to keep the size of the Main program as small as possible, and to give the user the choice as to what they want, rather than just giving everybody every Tool. I am very concerned that a 41 year veteran in IT would make such a novice mistake with the Start Up Optimiser. And as you said....and I quoted....Trust No One.....therefore I deleted your promotional location from the end of your post.
  13. This function is already available in the Task Manager in Windows 10.
  14. I have no idea where Damian Szabat got his information, but I would imagine he is just guessing. The licence is for 1 year...have a look at the Product Manual......https://www.iobit.com/product-manuals/isr-help/
  15. Have a look here...........https://www.iobit.com/en/transferproduct.php If that does not work, send a Private Message (PM) to Cicely, the Iobit Team member on the Forum. Reference this Topic in your message.
  16. This has nothing to do with the issue in the topic. The OP wanted a way to securely clean his recycle bin leaving no evidence which could be retrieved. Your instructions simply empties the recycle bin which does not securely delete the information (files). Please read the topic before replying.
  17. Hi Laurie You are most welcome. Thank you for your kind wishes, and my best to you and yours also. Do not hesitate to contact us should you require any further assistance.
  18. Open Uninstaller again and see if 365 is still in the list of programs installed. If it is, uninstall it again. This time look at the list of fragments to be cleaned and you should see the one that is causing the issue. As 365 is a Microsoft product, it is most likely that the fragment cannot be removed because it is a microsoft system file and access to it is denied.
  19. Hi laurie Sorry to hear your issue is not resolved. 1) I now have a "StartMenuExperienceHost" runs all the time I don't think I need it, how do I delete it? (attached image) You should leave StartMenuExperienceHost alone. It helps your Start menu to run smoothly. 2) windows defender screen protector, how do I disable or block it from running? Launch Windows Defender Security Center from your Start menu, desktop, or taskbar. Click the App and browser control button on the left side of the window. Click Off in the Check apps and files section. Click Off in the SmartScreen for Microsoft Edge section. 3) Windows "redistributable" programs (attached image) can I delete all? The 2010 versions showed up in the recent Win 10 update. I recommend that you do not delete these. They are part of the Windows Runtime System. Even though they are showing as old versions, it is best to leave them alone. Removing them has been known to cause issues with Windows Updates. Regarding the Performance Monitor issues......yes, I think you should uninstall ASC and re-install it to see if it corrects the issue. Use Iobit Uninstaller to remove it and ensure you use the option to remove all remnants. Also, go to file explorer ....C:\Program Files (x86)\Iobit and delete any ASC Folder. Also go to..... C:\Users\*****\AppData\Roaming\Iobit .....and delete any ASC Folder Reinstall ASC. Let me know if you have any further issues
  20. You are welcome. You could also try this.......open Device Manager.....find your Keyboard Driver..... right click on it and uninstall the driver completely. Now reboot your pc. Windows will automatically install a driver. This often solves issues for people. You should create a restore point before you do anything like this, so that you can go back if anything goes wrong. Also.....a little advice......do not update drivers unless you have a driver issue or the manufacturer recommends a driver update......if it's not broken, don't fix it.....
  21. I strongly recommend that you read the many posts/topics in the Smart Defrag section of the Forum regarding defragging and auto-defragging. It is completely unnecessary to be continuously defragging your drive, and certainly reduces the lifespan of your drive.
  22. Yes. Just download it from Majorgeeks.......https://m.majorgeeks.com/mg/getmirror/start_menu_8,1.html Install it and run it. Forget about Activating it.
  23. I would say it is definitely a driver issue. Did you try going to your pc manufacturer's site and downloading a keyboard driver.
