Windows Care System Optimization

[Bobby E]

I was ecstatic to find a freeware program with this much potential. I do have one recurring problem. Windows Care will not complete the system optimization after scanning. It says fixing problem, the green status bar is about half-way across, but then nothing. I visited FAQs, read the forums, got the latest update, but same problem. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP! :???:

Have you tried reinstalling it?

When you reinstall you should perform a "clean" reinstall

See the post called Install- Uninstall-Reinstall

 

Good luck

Your not the only one. I am having the same issue.

It is recommended that you try to perform a manual update. Do as follows: Exit the program. Download the latest database file and save the file to the program installation directory, which usually is "C:\Program Files\IObit\Advanced WindowsCare V2\". Open the program. Confirm that the latest definition file is installed by checking out the "Database Date" in the main program window.

 

The problem is caused by the definition file, so update it.

Hello, can you tell me the version info of the definition database file? And the size of the file "Ref.dbd".

You are not hijacking the thread, Tim ask you to do this,

"

Exit the program,

Download_the_latest_database_file_from_here and save the file to the program installation directory, which usually is "C:\Program Files\IObit\Advanced WindowsCare V2\". Open the program. Confirm that the latest definition file is installed by checking out the "Database Date" and "Signature Number" in the main program window.

and post the version and size of the downloaded file "Ref.dbd".

 

Thank you.

tjlmbklr,

Oh no no, I wasn't saying anyone was accusing me i was just trying to be polite.

 

Thanks for the advice.

 

So how am I supposed to know what the signature # is supposed to be?

 

To see if I did it correct, here is what I did.

 

1st. download link and put file in C:/Program files/Orbit.........

 

2nd. then reopened Advanced Windows care.

 

3rd. realized the date isn't todays and confused about signature #.

 

 

????????????

[enoskype]

If you have the latest file, you should see the following values.

 

Database date: 2007-12-23

Signature Number: 44692

 

Tm asks those values.

 

Cheers.

Ok problem just got a little more strange.

 

I uninstalled, then deleted folder, reinstalled, checked my version and it was Database date: 2007-12-23 Signature Number: 44692.

 

Then I ran AWC, it started up defaulted with all boxes check and the scan ran and stopped successfully. Then I ran repair (oddly enough my "optimizations" were zero problems). Then I closed AWC and reopened to scan again. Then to my surprise it was defaulted with the optimization box only checked like it was last left BEFORE I uninstalled then reinstalled. So I ran it again smae amount as before "43" then hangs up on repair.

 

 

?????????????????????????????????????????????????

The optimizations you had made earlier is written in the registry base.

other things from the program is also written there, - so before a clean install - clean the registry base.

This probably will not change the optimizations, in order to do that - right click my computer and choose Properties/advanced and the top settings and put check mark at "let windows choose the best settings for my computer", click ok

Then when you are ready to run the program again - be sure to check all details before running the repair.

This should do it I think

 

Good luck

Thanks again, I'll give it a try!

right click my computer and choose Properties/advanced and the top settings and put check mark at "let windows choose the best settings for my computer", click ok

 

I'll try with out choosing those settings and see what happens.

Sorry, Did-Not-Work...! same deal hangs up on optimization. I am almost about to give up on this program and go back to my old ways of just dealing with my PC's issues over time.

[solbjerg]

When you download the program to your computer, do you then save it in a folder? And do you then in properties have the option to unblock the program?

I am running xp, so I am not familiar with vista
