I too miss watching those little differently colored boxes moving
around -- very hypnotic
Even when you right click on a drive in Computer and select
Properties>Tools>Defragment, you get the same dumb dialogue
that you get from starting Defrag from the Start menu: Schedule
and Defrag Now followed by that annoying useless twirling thingy.
What drive? What progress? Should I get a snack or read "War
and Peace"?
2) Provide Taskbar Notification Area icons for automatic Indexing
and Defrag and anything else that may be using the HDs
I find it VERY disconcerting watching my HD light flashing for
lengthy periods of time and hearing the HD humming not knowing
what is going on. Virus? Worm? Trojan? Lynn Chaney stealing
my porn?
Besides a balloon message, double clicking the icons could bring
up a dialogue to turn them off or let them sleep and a progress bar,
and a link to help explain what is going on for newbies. During
installation of programs and drivers I am almost always asked to
close other running programs.
