So against my better judgement, I downloaded and ran the most recent version of Disk Defrag, using a "Custom Install". Wow- no 3rd party offers in an optimized installer! Could Auslogics have changed its ways? I had to investigate. Installer was optimized for better user experience.Users may now choose if they want disk temperature to be displayed in Celsius or Fahrenheit.the program now participates in the Auslogics Green Seal Project, which guarantees it to be free of toolbars, adware or third-party offers in the installer.Out of interest, I went to Auslogics website, and looked at the version history of Disk Defrag.
