It would be great if the ability to RESUME the last script was added. for me I had windows updates install while I was running a .MyD for a day.  then I had to restart the computer.  I then had to restart MyD and it basically had to do the same files again - though no movement was necessary.  Or if this is a simple to do to a script - would I be able to send the script to someone to modify?

All the MyDefrag scripts do a "resume", files that were placed by a previous run and are still in the desired location will be skipped. The program does not unnecessarily move files. The monthly scripts are very strict, though, even the smallest change on the disk will cause those scripts to redo everything above the change location. The weekly and daily script are designed to be less picky and will skip lot's of files, even when there have been lot's of changes.

You don't have to restart it immediately...

MyDefrag is able to resume its work using the same script with any of default scripts but generally it's able to do so "cleanly" only if the disk contents did not change since the script was interrupted,which is never the case on a system disk. If there is change, zones may get placed at slightly different positions or file order may change and this may induce additional operations performed by the script.
