Tried V 5.0 Beta. Went back to 4.X. Too many bugs in 5.0 Beta

1. Major one being that the graph does not show correctly. Showed 3.0% fragmented while 4.X right afterwards showed only 0.1% defragmented. Maybe 4.X has not worked correctly? I would hope not.

2. Defrag and optimize takes forever even though I have used 4.X to optimize and ran it just a few days ago. Even when I immeidately reran optimize it took forever.

 

Lot of work to be with 5.0 Beta Suggest pulling it from public beta download sites until it becomes usable. More internal testing by IObit personnel needed before it becomes a viable public beta.

 

Sorry that is how I see it.

 

Hi Buddahfan,

Hello Cicely and forum members,

Just un-installed SD Pro4 and installed SD5 beta, and was blown away with it. So I'm running a 4 yr. old Alienware Laptop, 2nd gen Intel i7, 8GB Ram, 750GB Seagate Hybrid HD running Windows 7 64-bit. I've been running SD4 Pro for a couple weeks now, and I run it nightly in Schedule Defrag mode, w/ a manual defrag during the day. Unlike SD3, each run always seems to need 15-20 minutes to Defrag and is never same, even though how often I run it. When I was using SD3 on same frequency, after a couple days, SD3 got to where it would complete in a 3-5 minute timespan (or less). SD4 never could do this. After seeing this for a week or so, I suspected something was wrong. SD4 defrags were slow in multiple observations during its process. After installing SD5 about 15 minutes ago, I have been WOW-ed!

I'm running my first Defrag & Prioritizing Files (method I ALWAYS use), I've observed all the slow observations I mentioned earlier, GONE! First the mapping analyzing during the defrag really makes the process feel its going to be complete & accurate. Second, when defraging the files, the speed of the files being defrag (shown at the bottom of defrag window) shows an improved speed performance in the process. My initial impression of this beta version is very highly positive. During defrag process, my cpu runs between 13% - 18%, along with all my normal processes, uses aprox. 4.5 GB of memory, and most importantly, my son can continue his online schooling w/o a drop in IE performance due to the defraging running. I will be observing SD5 over the next week to determine IF I will have the same issue I did with SD4 in the fact it seemed not to be properly defraging my HD, and will bring any further observations to light then.

 

Thus far, there's only 3 minor cosmetic changes I can recommend. 1) SD5 & IMF needs to have a "Check for Updates" in the context (right-click) menu of the notification icon in system tray, 2) During the defrag, it shows "Estimated Time" and I feel this should state "Elapsed Time" instead, and 3) I personally prefer the icon for SD4 over the new icon of SD5 (others may not agree).

 

I feel ya did a great job improving SD, keep up the awesome work,

At least your SD 5 does something, albeit unexplanable. For me once the Defrag reaches 30% all the tiles in the map suddenly change colour, with most of them showing black (which I designated as unmovable). The "Moving" square then just sits in one place flashing, even though the program continues to show slow progress.

I have gone back to SD 2.9 which I found to be the most stable and effective version, and I immediately saw a huge improvement in my PC speed.

I do not think this fast track version development has served Iobit very well.....Quality has badly suffered in the pursuit of quantity.

When I run SD CPU jumps up to around 50%. Can you guys find a way to reduce it so it is not using so much CPU? Thanks

Hi parkd1,

 

It should be a dual-core CPU of your PC, which may cause a high usage of CPU.

 

We have forwarded this issue to our products team for serious consideration and they will try to optmize our SD to solve the issue.

 

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

Uses way too much cpu power compared to SD4, 50% on an i5-4670K.

I decided to lighten the load on my desktop computers by removing a number of apps for which Microsoft has an app with the same functionality. One of the apps I removed from my desktops was Smart Defrag. I removed several apps on all of my desktops to 1. improve the performance including the startup times 2. reduce the time I spend updating apps which has become a bit of a load now that I have six computers running Windows 10. Amazingly enough I am using all six of them. I decided to use Tweak-SSD for my Lenovos. It works good. Has improved the performance of both Lenovos and the price was right.

 

Again nothing really against Smart Defrag. I had actually gone back to v 4.x before deciding to remove Smart Defrag all-together. I even removed CCleaner along with several other apps and just use Bitdefender Total Security One Click Optimizer and W10 Clean Mgr to clean up things on the my desktops when I am done. Still using Driver Booster on all six of my computers (I have two licenses) and of course IMF 4.0 RC Pro on my Lenovos

Hello Cicely,

today all times I booted the PC a warning message appeared, stating that Smart Defrag 5 (latest beta installed) encountered an error and that was closed.

 

May I do some test that can be useful for you to understand the why? Until today it worked nice and if I run it manually, it works also now.

 

Other tools installed: ASCU9, Uninstall5 and Unlocker.

Hello everyone,

?So I got a Lenovo Y700-17 last week, and its an awesome machine. Came w/ Windows 10 64-Bit & 512 GB SSD. Since these are both first time using, after running SD5 Beta, I had to do some research on SSD. So, let's see if I got this right? You don't Defrag SSD drives, they do something called "Trim"? And I'm being told by SD5 that Boot-Time Defrag isn't done on SSDs?? I tried to research these and get a "non-geeky" understanding of these, but was unsuccessful. So, I can't figure out if SD5 is so fast because it has less maintenance to do on SSD or if the program is not functioning properly? It looks as though it does "something" and does it so fast and its done? Looks like an analyzed but it goes through my 3 partitions and apps so fast, I can't determine exactly what it's done... Can someone give a crash course on this for me???

 

Thanks in advance...

ACCPresidentLB
