https://horizondatas...purl-blackfriday2015So it goes. I go for the 25% discount. A couple weeks later a 50% discount shows up.
But anyway, I don't recommend Rollback RX PC for SSD or those who love to defrag. I find it useful because System Restore does not work on my Laptop and it has a spinner.
If you like to keep you spinner defragged the only safe way I have found is to uninstall Rollbaxk RX first. Do all your cleanup routines, defrag, scan for tracking cookies etc.. Then reinstall Rollback. Also I found it better to turn off all the automatic snapshot defragging and snapshot taking on first boot of the day. The only "automatic" setting I left enabled is automatically snapshot the current system before rolling back.
I found with the automatic snapshot defrag it could try to defrag stuff already deleted. Also it makes for faster boots. If you want a snapshot first boot of the day just take one after all your startup programs are done loading.
Looking back I think the free version would have been enough for me. The major difference with the Pro is that the free protects C: and that's it. With the Pro you have the option to protect all partitions on the physical system drive. Although non Windows OS are not supported.
I typically keep only a few snapshots so I could have gotten by with the 7 maximum of the free or Home edition. But for $50 I'm not crying. It would be more fun if it didn't require so much maintenance. But I am glad to have a restore capability.
Edit: Just for grins I posted on Rollback RX Pro forum asking if they would "roll back" the price to the $34.95 level since it was more or less on the heels of my $51 and change purchase. So far, no response. Maybe they don't like puns?
Edit2: I posted as a bit of a joke(and to post the rollback pun) but they told me to PM them the transaction number.
Edit3: To give credit where due(pun intended) I got a notice today a refund of $16 and change is in the process of being credited to me. Very cool.
