WhenFinished

This setting specifies what MyDefrag will do when it finishes executing a script. Default is to do nothing, the MyDefrag window will remain on the screen until the user stops the program.

  • This setting is ignored by the screensaver version of MyDefrag.
  • If the "Forced" option is not specified then a shutdown or reboot is not guaranteed. MyDefrag will instruct Windows to do a "soft" reboot or shutdown, but Windows may choose to ignore it, for example when the computer is locked or when a program is running that refuses to be stopped.
