ASC & Smart Defrag...

[Angahran]

I have both Advanced SystemCare and Smart Defrag installed.

However, when I click the Smart Defrag icon on the TuneUp page of ASC it opens my browser and tells me to download SmartDefrag.

 

Is there any way to tell ASC that I already have SmartDefrag and have that icon actually open Smart Defrag ?

 

Thanks.

Hi Angahran,

 

That icon, in Utilities of ASC, should launch Smart Defrag if Smart Defrag has already been installed.

 

A clean uninstall and re-install may be a remedy.

 

Please read the relevant Post ..2. Over the top/Clean install in USAGE of IOBIT PRODUCTS thread.

 

Cheers.

Hi Angahran

Just one additional question -

Do you in the settings have "Use Smart Defrag" ticked?

Hi solbjerg, although Angahran has not stated the type of his IObit softwares if they are free or pro, smart defrag function is available as free in SD1.40.

 

If the ASC is the free version, then smart defrag option in it is disabled.

 

Cheers.

Hi enoskype

:-) Yes - so you keep reminding me - I seem to forget regularly :-)

Perhaps I ought to have the IObit free versions on my other machine :-)

I have ASC3 Pro version.

I don't see any 'settings' option, there is an 'options' option if that is what you mean.

 

Under Options - Diagnose System - Disk Defragment there is a tick box for 'Enable Smart Defragment', which is ticked.

 

I cannot find any other mention of defragment in the options menu.

 

Even if I go and open smart defrag from the start menu, if I then select the smart defrag icon from ASC3 it still opens the website.

 

Thanks for the link to the installation thread, but it had nothing about this problem.

Hi Angahran

Sorry - under Options you have some choices on witch settings to choose :-)

Could you please try to refresh the "Use smart defrag" setting i.e. remove the tick /accept -place the tick again /accept and then OK

I have seen this "hang" behaviour once in a while in Windows too.

If that doesn't do the trick, please try a "Clean Install" (description in my signature) - possibly of both programs.

Remember to save your username and the activation code. Or perhaps you still have it in your mail?
