Serious problem with ASC3 registry defrag

[MerleOne]

Hi,

 

I just tried registry defrag on my XP Home system. After reboot, the session opening crashed. After another reboot, all my settings were gone, the registry was corrupt. Fortunately I created a system restore point so I was able to recover. Am I the only one to experience this ?

 

Thanks.

Hi MerleOne,

 

No, there are couple of other users complaining about that. You can go through the recent threads in the Forum to get more info on that matter.

 

Cheers.

Hello to all-Reg defrag is, and has been Aok with my XPsp3 since day one-first time out frag was 2%-just my 2 cents

reg defrag

 

Yes Sunny, have run it at least a half dozen times on two pc's,both XP sp3,but totally different programs installed on each-registries differ greatly in size as well-hope this helps

Hi detailer

I think your usual approch of having no automated functions running may have saved you some grief. :-)

I also run the functions "by hand", much safer and much more to my liking.

Also I have also got through the add-in reg-defrag safely 3-4 times, - I don't run it very often.

Cheers

for the record

 

Hi Tim-went ahead and downloaded from that non-active link :razz:you provided-then it occurred to me-is this a patch for the free or the pro version or both-saw the size of the file,and don't want an accidental downgrade-please advise

Reg defrag

 

I tried to defrag my registry. Analysis got to 88% then I got a message "Floating Point Division By Zero". The screen locked up for about 1-2 min, then went back to the original screen to start the reg defrag process. It will not complete the analysis in order to defrag the registry. Any ideas?: I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate (64bit)

Reg Defrag

 

Hi rhice-I'd avoid Reg defrag for now.Took awhile to get the bugs worked out for XP.I suspect since Vista 64 is new to the inclusions of Iobit's utilities,they're still putting the finishing touches on it.Be patient as I'm sure they will have this resolved shortly.
