Innuendo:
It looks like the FTP is the 64 bit installer.-Steven Avery (April 01, 2012, 01:49 AM)

Yes, Stephen. The link I posted is to the 64-bit installer which is why I typed "here's a direct link to the x64 installer" and the FTP URL even has x64 in the path name.

I couldn't reverse-engineer the path for the x86 executable & I have no x86-based Windows installs to run the CNet installer to let it tell me what the path is.

That's nice.

IainB:
Thanks for posting re this @Innuendo.
Just thought I'd post some feedback:

* I downloaded and installed PDFE (64bit version) and it seems to work fine.    :Thmbsup:
* I noticed that it apparently hooks into and uses the Win7 defragger, taking over its scheduled operation.
* The reports it gives are quite informative and with some useful charts, and I like that the reports can be saved/printed.
* I was nervously wondering whether shuffling around my disk data during the defrag process might cause my Hard Disk Sentinel to detect some more bad sectors - back in Oct. 2011 it detected 21 bad sectors on the disk surface - but there hasn't been a murmur from HDS so far, praise be to Magneto!

You an also right click on the drive and do a Boot time scan which optimises Windows files during the next restart. Makes a big difference.
