JkDefrag further developed as MyDefrag
yksyks:
There are already several GUI's for MyDefrag available, for example:
* http://www.mydefrag.net/
* http://www.emro.nl/freeware/MyDefragGUI.html
* http://mydefraggui.com/
I don't need any of them, but someone might give them a try.

yeah,
there was a bunch of them for JkDefrag, some focusing on different aspects
For 'normal' use I found the Emro one the best but havent tried MyDefrag yet - will try that GUI, thanks yksyks :)

Unfortunately the one thing that hasn't changed is the On Screen Display. Man is that a zero!! A snappier display would inspire more confidence I think. The program seems to work quite well. But it's tough to convince people that something that churns awhile, then spits out the number 42 is the greatest innovation since the abacus. People want to see some snazz. Esp. nowadays almost everyone has some kind of hardware accelerated graphics. Even the colors used are so drab!

JKDefrag/MyDefrag does seem to do the job, but darn it's slow - PerfectDisk gets the job done a lot faster, and (at least) as well... but of course that's payware, and beggars can't be choosers :)
About the display, not only is it slow... I also don't feel it gives a lot of clues as to what's going on. There's no legend for the various colors (which aren't distinct enough), and a mode with a traditional block grid would be nice.

It would be better if it just had a text box with the text updates. That's what I watch. The Zone 3 yadda yadda with the percentage. Even the old MS Dos defrag from PC Tools had a better display using Text Mode and colored squares in the video character cells.
Even though MyDefrag does a more thorough defrag, Auslogics looks like it's doing a good job due to the graphics display.
