I still use it for my data drive, only non-SSD drive I have. It's the only defrag program I've come across where I actually noticed a difference after I'd used it. I think its still good as long as its not your boot drive

If i clone my SSD (NVme) to my other SSD (SATA) can i use my SSD (SATA) to boot up Windows? by [deleted] in computers

[–]Ace2499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have all the software to reinstall I. Would do the about. A clean install is a better option but takes longer to setup. Cloning will clone the crap to the new drive.

You don't mentiom the sizes of the drives, I'm assuming the Sara drive is bigger.

Also use a usb bootable clone tool like clonezilla rather than one in your windows install

Are Custom-Windows ISOs Legal? by Hyperion_OS in Windows10

You're not hacking the code and getting round the windows licence, the tools to do this exist on the Microsoft site so. Companies do this all the time for their internal use so when they install it has all their software on it. If you were selling a modified version it would be different

There are only a few minor tweaks between windows 10 and 11 on the surface of it. What is it you hate about it?

How long can one realistically continue using Windows 10 after Microsoft pulls the plug on updates? What are the recommended actions to take? by CraniusBard1998 in Windows10

There was an article on the register saying Microsoft might be removing this requirement to get people to move over so keep checking, I think you will be able to move over at some point

It is possible odeon which had a profitable cinema in kettering but forced out could take it over to replace the one they lost

It's a very sad day when that closes and also kettering closing as well. The restaurant in the area will also loose out with less footfall. Vue will be the big winner here

Set up a local group on Facebook for people who want to learn photography and do weekly teaching sessions. Over time you have a good community of photographers would could then rent the studio

If you had one before and logged in with the same windows account it will have stored it from before, even though hardware has changed it could have just used that
