It is an essential PC optimization and maintenance utility, designed for maximizing hard drives' efficiency. The Pro version is now equipped with 4 different disk optimization algorithms for intelligent rearrangement of files on disks, and has an offline defragmentation engine for defragmenting locked system files (including MFT, Windows Registry, Paging and Hibernation files).
