What's new in PerfectDisk 11 (Build 185)
- There was a issue where a critical section of code was not locked correctly. This could result in PDEngine or PDAgent crashing. This has been resolved.
- Changes were made to make PerfectDisk 11 compatible with new version of PerfectDisk Enterprise Console (version 12.0)
What's new in PerfectDisk 11 (Build 182, 183)
- We corrected an issue which was preventing the PerfectDisk user interface from correctly saving user settings to the registry.
- We corrected a scheduling bug on virtual computers. When the start time was missed the user interface displayed a date of 1899.
- We corrected an issue with the welcome screen always displaying when PerfectDisk was launched even though is should not have.
- We ensured compatability with Exchange 2007, SP3 and have allowed PerfectDisk to defragment data stores in this configuration.
- We corrected a bug which caused PerfectDisk to crash if the MFT exceeded 80GB.
- The patch file to 11.00.182 was corrupted, so a new patch file was create to 11.00.183. New installation of 11.00.182 was not effected. The bug only effected patching from an earlier build to 11.00.182.
What's new in PerfectDisk 11 (Build 178)
- We corrected a bug when creating Auto Pilot schedules for Exchange Data stores on Exchange 2010. If individual stores were selected instead of all stores you would get an error.
- A new feature was added to allow controlling the behavior (display) of the registration dialog. This can now be blocked using group policy, the config.ini file or the Enterprise Console
- A new feature was added to control the VSS settings from Group Policy or the config.ini file.
- A new feature was added to control the custom SmartPlacement settings from Group Policy.
- We modified the behavior of the Screen Saver Auto-Pilot schedule to allow the monitor to power off. Prior to this version Screen Saver schedules would not run if the monitor powered off as not screen saver was present. This behavior was modified to recognize the corporate need to have monitor power down to save energy.
- The defragmentation logic was modified to minimize skipping files during a defragmentation pass. Prior to this version a file could be skipping after failing to move when requested. This logic was changed to only skip the file under more restrictive terms.
- We corrected a flaw in the SmartDefrag logic where the proper defragmentation algorithm was not always being used.
- We added support for Japanese translations.
What's new in PerfectDisk 11 (Build 174)
- Correct issues connecting to and displaying data stores for Exchange 2010
- Change behavior when stopping a defrag pass. PerfectDisk used to display the statistics at the time you stopped even though they were inaccurate. PerfectDisk no longer does this.
- The display files in block feature has been disabled during a defrag and analyze pass since there was no data to display
- Corrected some display issues on the virtual machine tab
- Added support for translation into Japanese
- Corrected some statistical calculations when files are being added and deleted from the drive during the defragmentation pass.
- The list of drive types that can be impersonated was limited to prevent confusion. The purpose of impersonating drive types was due to the inability to accurately determine whether or not a drive is a solid state drive.
- Corrected a display issue on the Hyper-V host product. GUID was being displayed in lieu of the guest computer name.
- Clarified the code to ensure the user realized the schedules maximum duration only applies to the online portion of the schedule. There is not maximum duration for a boot-time defragmentation pass.
- Ensure that PerfectDisk does not attempt to perform an offline defragmentation pass on a FAT/FAT32 from a schedule. This functionality is not supported.
- Corrected some typo's in displayed text
- Changed the default behavior regarding file modification date on FAT/FAT32 drives. When no date exists we now display nothing. We used to display 1980.
- Improved the layout to better fit all the on screen data
- Corrected a bug when defragmenting drives greater than 2,147,483,648 clusters (8 TB with 4k cluster size)
- Improved boot-time defragmentation logging.
- Corrected a display issue with the schedule tab buttons when using Group Policy.
- Certain error messages were improved to aid the user in understanding what went wrong.
What's new in PerfectDisk 11 (Build 170)
- Release of PerfectDisk Virtual editions.
- Changed the behavior of how solid state drives are defragmented.
- Usability enhancements added.
- Built in defrag schedule has been disabled to prevent thrashing the drive with two different defrag programs running at once.
- Fixed a bug which blocked boot-time logging on 64 bit Windows.
- Added ability to enter Proxy information when using AutoUpdate feature.
- Fixed some column sizing issues and typos.
- Added a feature to allow shutting down after a manually initiated defragmentation pass. Previously this feature existed for schedules only.
- Progress removed from the tray icon as the percent complete was wildly inaccurate.
- Fixed display issues where San Serif font was specifically called for. It the computer did not have this font PerfectDisk could display schedule information.
- Corrected some refresh issues in the user interface where settings were being changed but the display was not updated until the user interface was closed and reopened.
- Fixed an issue where the duplicate file finder could delete files from the Programs File folder on 64 bit computers. By default this directory should have been excluded.
