Not satisfied with the freeware defragmentation offerings? If yes, JetDrive 2010 Professional is a “defragementation suite” that may interest you. The following is a description of the program as per the developer:
JetDrive 2010 Defragmentation Suite
Do you still remember the feeling when you bought your PC and everything everything ran so quickly? When applications opened almost instantly? With JetDrive you can regain this lost speed.
Defragmentation
There is a physical reason why your PC slows down with time. The arrangement of files on your hard drive becomes more and more chaotic, and individual files may be broken into many small parts over the entire drive, resulting in fragmentation. The outcome is a slowing down of your system, as the hard drive reads and merges these separate fragments every time you open a file. JetDrive defragments your drive and restores it to an optimal state.
The following chart lists the features of JetDrive 2010 Professional and compares the features between JetDrive 2010 Professional and JetDrive 2010 Ultimate:

- Visit the promotion page and download JetDrive 2010 Professional:
- After JetDrive 2010 Professional has finished downloading, install it. (That installer is in English except for the one part where you will have to register.)
- During the installation you will be asked to register JetDrive 2010 Professional:
Enter your e-mail address, first name, and last name to register it:
If you get that last popup message, then you have registered JetDrive 2010 Professional properly (it automatically detects registration). If you did not get that last message, that means JetDrive 2010 Professional was unable to automatically detect your registration and you will have to register it manually. If you fall within the latter category, look for an e-mail from Abelssoft <software@abelssoft.de> with the subject of Abelssoft: Ihr Freischaltcode; the e-mail contains the registration code you will need to use to register JetDrive 2010 Professional. JetDrive 2010 Professional was able to automatically detect registration for me so I don’t have any screenshots to show how to manually register the program.
- Enjoy!
If you have any trouble getting JetDrive 2010 Professional for free, post below and other dotTechies or I will try to help.
Thanks Roy!
Ummm… Ashraf?

Fail layout.
Can the reg be used -
- After the PC dies ?
- On multiple PCs ?
What Defragger do you use Ashraf ?
@Locutus: I know. I am messing around with minify settings to optimize dotTech a bit more. Don’t sound so excited =P
@Rob (Down Under): I don’t know about registration, sorry. I am an Auslogics guy.
I have asked a few times, so I am assuming that you believe the majority of members like the checkbox unticked ?
Could we perhaps poll the members, to see if they prefer it ticked ?
This post is me ticking the checkbox
@Rob (Down Under): I can’t set the comment box to autotick. It would be chaos if people got automatically subscribed whenever they posted a comment. People would be coming after me with a pitchfork.
FYI you can subscribe to comments now without having to comment. Look below the comment form.
@Ashraf: Ahh, I see. And I disabled Adblock Plus for nothing.
I am 68.
When you get to that age, please remember to write to me, and tell me whether -
- You remember to tick the checkbox
or
- You remember to subscribe to each thread that you first visit
Have you seen the Movie ‘Catch 22′ ?
@Locutus: That hurt.
@Rob (Down Under): No I haven’t seen it. I am sorry but I just can’t turn on autotick. Most people don’t want to be subscribed to comments. I will look into if its possible to store the comment subscribe data in cookies so individuals can have autotick if they want.
Okay, I installed it and also had the registration code sent to me. I cannot find what to click or open in order to insert the reg code sent to me. Any help?
@David Roper: JetDrive automatically registers when you submit that form. If it didn’t automatically register you should get some sort of popup saying you are using trial version. If you don’t get popup you are registered.
@Ashraf: I was able to defrag the registry so I tried to defrag the memory next (another choice). That’s when it popped up and asked me to upgrade for 14.90 Euro??
Not complaining about something free. Just curious why it asked me for more money. Any ideas?
@David Roper: I believe its because defragging the memory is only available in the Ultimate edition of this program.
Language German…. Please change English…..Thank you!
@Rob (Down Under):
I definitely agree with Rob that the Notify Me checkbox should be ticked by default! Is there anyone who posts who does not want notification of responses? For the one-in-a-thousand who don’t (maybe they are posting from someone else’s computer), let them have the option to check that they do not want notification. I sometimes forget to check it because it is off-screen (too far down) when I am posting….:-(….
@Ashraf:
That’s a good idea (which I have seen on other sites)–if we can put in our profile to autotick threads to which we post.
I had been using Auslogics defragger, which I found to be the best. But then I re-discovered the old JKDefrag in the (newer) form of MyDefrag. It seems to have a carefully thought-out system which is very different from other defraggers (?). They explain the difference very clearly–about what needs to be where and why. And why a certain amount of a particular sort of fragmentation will actually give you a more efficient system! And they have different defrag options depending on whether the drive is for system or data because a different ordering is needed for the system partition. Also whether you are doing a monthly, weekly, or daily defrag. I would love to hear from Ashraf or Mike what they think about this…..
Is this the same developer who did CleverPrint (Abelssoft)???
Gosh, this sofware should be call TurtleDrive. Gave it 3 hours and it still is telling me the deframentation will be taking up to a day to finish. No way. It may be free right now but it’s not worth it. I’ll stick with Defraggler or Paragon.
LOL..Ashraf..this has got my scratching my head! I downloaded it and installed, but didn’t get any popup window to register..and didn’t get any email with a reg code in it..which isn’t really surprisong, as I wasn’t asked at any stage to enter my contact details.
So, basically, I’m not sure if this is registered or not..any ideas on how to tell if it is or not..and if not, what should I do to get a reg code?
Thanks in advance
Dan
@Dan: Dan, read the reply to me above.
@David Roper:
Thanks for that, David..I understand fully about the upgrade issue you posted about..but in my case, I didn’t get a popup window asking me to register or enter my details..so there is no way for me to get a reg code for this by simply installing and upgrading.
I might very well be wrong, but my understanding about this giveaway is that it’s meant to be a fully working version once regged..not the usual free trial they offer for download, which, you can upgrade for a fee to the “Ultimate” version..which is basically what it is/was asking you to do.
In other words, this is meant to be a fully working version of the “Pro” program once regged..not a trial..the two are completely different and one is not the same as the other.
I would like to know if there is any other way for us to get the “Pro” reg code offered for this today if, like in my case, we don’t get the popup window during install and were not asked for our contact details?
Thanks for the reply. I appreciate your input on this.
Dan
No probs here. JetDrive installed, registered and functioning fine. Thanks Ashraf and JetDrive. BTW, when optimizing, it said something about taking one day two hours and twenty minutes to finish. But it finished in only thirty six minutes.
@Dan: Dan, you will not get a popup. what you “gotta” do is find the proper link in Ashraf’s article above and go through the motions of having them send you the code in an email. They will. And they will send you a download link then.
The act of sending you the key code is just an act by them to let you know they got it registered on their end. When you download the product they have already registered you copy secretly back in their home office. I never used my keycode they sent. I had it cued and ready. alas alak. I can’t even see it anywhere on any drop down menu. It just works, Have faith,. It’s Christmas. It’s elf magic.;-)
@janetb: Hi Janet:
Ah, MyDefrag! I was originally taken with this app back when Jeroen (? my spelink’s opeliss) first developed it and yes, you’re right, it was JK Defrag. Then it morphed into MyDefrag and, well, I’m still running it. My reasons are a bit convoluted, but here goes anyway:
1) The original was light, fast, and of high integrity; it was fascinating to watch how the developer progressively tweaked the app in view of user experience response;
2) The original attained an instant pedigree, that is: it was obvious from the get-go that a lot of thought had gone into it;
3) Subsequent revisions have continued to stay close to the original’s ethos, that is: the eschewing of fancy packaging in preference to integrity of substance; and:
4) I have a soft spot for the little guys of this world — yes, I know the big corporations have their place, but a great debt is owed to independently-minded software creators like JK.
As usual, Ashraf has done everyone a favour in highlighting the free JetDrive opportunity, but I’m not going to take advantage of it myself simply because I’ve grown so used to MyDefrag. I do, however, appreciate that some computer users won’t like it at all: aesthetic considerations are non-existent, so the app has not a single bell nor a single whistle.
However. . . I find its intelligent approach to defragging excellent, and the support info available to new users very informative. I suppose it would look a darn sight better if JK stopped referring to ‘scripts’ and rejigged the GUI to have daily / weekly / monthly option buttons, but that’s not a downer for me.
About the only tip I’d give anyone reading this who might be interested in road-testing MyDefrag is to exercise the same care as you would with any defragger from any source, i.e., don’t max out on the initial settings until you’re sure everything’s OK. (This is not, incidentally, intended as a criticism of JKDefrag / MyDefrag.)
So for a first-time user, I’d recommend beginning with the weekly defrag option and seeing how that works out, then leaving it for a week and running the daily option (just the once) and then, a week later, going for the “big” defrag / optimise (i.e., the monthly option.) After that, a once-a-week defrag/optimise is just fine (in my experience) — I have reservations about defragging on a daily basis.
As noted, I’ve never had a problem with this software and have installed umpteen examples of it on friends and relatives’ computers. I can’t comment on comparative speeds because I’ve never done any; all I can say is, it’s a simple-to-goodness little app with a long, long development history that has never let me down. And if it doesn’t look that good, well, the fact that it’s entirely free does endow it with a special kind of enduring appeal!
I installed and registered OK – I attempted to defragment ONLY my system drive – I got a message saying it would take over 26 hours! This is unacceptable!! I uninstalled and will go back to Auslogics which is fast and effective.
