[ 1 ] Kerish Doctor, why do your different tools find different things when executing the supposedly same tasks, such that the [ Cleanup of junk files ] tool finds more junk than [ Full scan ( recommended ) ] finds — I’d prefer clearly identifying differences, perhaps between primary versus secondary scrubbing, or shallow versus deep scrubbing.
[ 2 ] Why does Kerish Doctor ignore or misinterpret our mouse scroll settings, where I have 1-line-at-a-time chosen, but your lists move more or less than one line at a time, but never 1-line at a time — I’d prefer smooth scrolling, along with [ select all ] and [ unselect all ] options for any list.
[ 3 ] Likewise, Kerish Doctor lists do not move one screen at a time when clicking in the scroll bars, again, smooth and predictable scrolling is preferred.
[ 4 ] Does a check-mark in [ Optimization of services ] mean the service will be turned on, or off — I’d prefer selectable columns on the right unambiguously offering [ on at boot ] [ on at boot after delay ( specify timing ) ] [ on demand only when needed ] [ off ].
[ 5 ] SSD drive makers suggest turning off prefetch and boot optimization, yet Kerish Doctor recommends those regardless — you smarter about SSD longevity and performance, or are you missing a technical bugaboo?
[ 6 ] Also, when I rebuilt a computer after a mechanical failure, Kerish Doctor refused the original registration authorization claiming that the information was over-used in the wild — I suggest linking IP or a unique computer ID to allow us legitimate users to reinstall anytime during the registration period.
So, for your next version, I recommend cleaning up the user interface and tools implementation to eliminate awkwardness and ambiguity.
Otherwise, kudos to Kerish Doctor for defining a unique value in a crowded field ( a tool-set separately and severely invented by, and abandoned by, Peter Norton, Quarterdeck, and the original PC Tools by Central Point Software, for the historians among us, all of these companies were acquired by, and dismantled by, evil Symantec, by the way, who have no modern equivalent … does anyone take Symantec Norton Utilities seriously as a ‘modern’ tool? ).
