🔄 5. Enable Scheduled or Background Optimization
- Go to Settings > Automatic Optimization
- Enable scheduled defrags (e.g. weekly, idle time, boot-time)
- You can also enable SSD optimization (TRIM) here
🧰 6. Boot-Time Defragmentation (Optional)
- Allows defragmenting locked system files
- Enable under Settings > Boot Time Defragmentation
📊 System Requirements
| Requirement | Minimum |
|---|---|
| OS | Windows 11 / 10 / 8.1 / 7 (Workstation version only) |
| Disk Types | HDDs, SSDs, external drives, RAID (read-only) |
| RAM | 2 GB+ recommended |
| Admin Rights | Required for full functionality |
✅ Best Used For:
- Optimizing older PCs or workstations with mechanical HDDs
- Enterprise IT management of multiple PCs
- Restoring performance on long-used systems
- Safe SSD optimization with TRIM (not actual defrag)
❗ Notes & Best Practices
- SSDs should not be defragmented traditionally — use the TRIM optimization feature instead
- Modern Windows systems defrag automatically, but O&O can be more powerful for:
- Large volumes
- Specialized workstations (e.g., video editing)
- Environments needing scheduled or centralized control
- Network admins can control multiple installs with O&O’s Enterprise Console
