MyDefrag v4 Forum / Questions and help / Re: Maybe another stupid question?

To me, the only change I've made to the standard scripts is to put ZIP and RAR files to the far end as my first "zone", as they are rarely referred to and can sit for weeks or even months, then are deleted or repacked.
Now that you mention them, I might put my D&S at the end as well, because they are rarely changed.

MyDefrag v4 Forum / Questions and help / Does Slowdown stay set for entire script?
|
on: April 02, 2011, 11:41:49 pm

I've been setting Slowdown to various settings and it seems that MyDefrag does run slower for a while, but at some point it seems to be back up to full speed. My only indicators are the rate files are moved ( instead of a delay after moving a file, it goes right to the next one) and the amount of CPU as indicated by TaskManager. Could caching of indexes, etc. cause the speedup? Has anyone else noticed this apparent change?
How does Slowdown work, anyway?

MyDefrag v4 Forum / Requests for new features / Re: specify log file for multilple sessions
|

I did this, but it requires editting each script file. I used a multi-file search and replace program to do this, as I want seperate logs, but I don't want to change the scripts' code. Here's an example from AnalyzeOnly.MyD: WriteLogfile("!ScriptTitle!.log","LogHeader")
VolumeSelect CommandlineVolumes() VolumeActions AppendLogfile("!ScriptTitle!.log","LogAnalyzeOnly") Pause() VolumeEnd
AppendLogfile("!ScriptTitle!.log","LogFooter")

MyDefrag v4 Forum / Bugs and problems / Bug in appearance of Main menu
|
on: December 26, 2010, 05:06:29 pm

I've noticed a small problem in the appearance of the Main Menu, where a gray patch appears to wrap around from the right hand side of the first line of drive info over to the left side in front of the check box of drive C:.
I've attached 2 images, one with the display pointed out and one showing how the "wrap" disappears with the window just slightly re-sized. BTW, the menu window seems to not remember the resizing, but returns to the same size each time.
I know this is a small thing, but when I originally noticed it and I wondered if my adding scripts had done it, but removing the "Sort Directories by Name" script didn't change its appearance.
Is it possible some setting in my display or fonts is producing this? Has anyone else noticed it?

MyDefrag v4 Forum / Questions and help / Is there a script that just optimizes the Directory?
|
on: November 01, 2010, 06:17:55 pm
|
I've tried modifying an example script like this:
# MyDefrag v4.0 default script: Sort By Name # # This is an example script.
Title('Sort Directories By Name') Description(' Sort all the files and directories by name on all the selected disk(s). ') WriteLogfile("!ScriptTitle!.log","LogHeader") VolumeSelect CommandlineVolumes() VolumeActions AppendLogfile("!ScriptTitle!.log","LogBefore") FileSelect # all Directory(yes) FileActions SortByName(Ascending) FileEnd AppendLogfile("!ScriptTitle!.log","LogAfter") VolumeEnd
I'm in the process of organizing my MP3s and since I'm moving, unpacking, renaming, etc. so many files amongst 4 different disks, I'd like a "touch-up" script that doesn't move the files until I'm finished, which will take weeks at the rate I'm going.  Then I can go back to my usual scripts.

MyDefrag v4 Forum / Requests for new features / Add Date Time stamp to header

When doing multiple drives, as in the automaticdaily, I'd like to know how long each drive took, not just overall elapsed time. I've modified my Settings.myd to be: # Logfile "before" statistics: Message("LogBefore"," ############################################################################### Processing volume: !MountPoint! !Date! !Time! ###############################################################################

MyDefrag v4 Forum / Questions and help / Why did MyDefrag defragment a DVD-RAM?
|
on: February 01, 2010, 05:42:33 pm
|
|
I accidentally left a DVD-RAM disc (FAT32 format) in the D: drive, and when I checked my PC this morning, it had been defragmented, taking 3 hours and 19 minutes to do it. The script was the Weekly, as installed, with no mods.
I thought removable drives were skipped?

MyDefrag v4 Forum / Requests for new features / Re: Make log file name the same as Script name
|

After I've modified my scripts, the next update overwrites them, and I have to edit them again. If I change their names, I have to compare the new script contents with my modified ones and edit them to comply with the new instructions.
This latest version, for instance, completely changed the way the scripts were handled. Maybe a Setting command like UseScriptNameforLog(Yes) could be added.
