My Diskeeper trial ran out

And it wont let me reinstall any version so even if i had a special version from TPB i cant install. So i was wondering what the second best disk defgagmentor is.

Thanks

O&O is all right for me, but someone else says it killed his mft, so I dunno'.

Trail ran out? Enter a cd key then (From teh net or buy one)

try using a registry cleaner, something like regsupreme to get rid of useless/obsolete registry entries, then try to reinstall.

what registry cleaner should i use, and how do i enter a key?

Google "Diskeeper cd key".;)

The Retail version doesn't use a key, you just install it.

Delete the installed program folder if it still exists (C:\Program Files\Executive Software)

do a registry search for "Diskeeper" and remove all found entries
I use "jv16 powertools 2005" for this type of thing, but I suppose most other reg cleaners will have a search function

you should now be able to install the retail version (like the one in our verifieds)

actually, thinking about it I would try this method first as it is easier.

after making sure the installed program folder is deleted (as above)

Start > Run > regedit
and delete this root registry entry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Executive Software

now install the retail version

Alrite ill give it a try. Thanks :)

Back up registry first or hilarity may ensue.
