Since Windows 10 it's been called "optimization" not defrag. Under automatic control, it may run DAILY, WEEKLY or MONTHLY and also offers MANUAL optimization when required.

Hasleo Backup Suite v5.4.2..0 released... see HERE for details...

...and when using the "Image for LINUX" version of the Recovery Media, the imaging speed rate is much faster (LINUX is very efficient).

CBT doesn't do those things...

"Refreshing" an SSD is not a Windows issue, it's done by the SSD itself during WRITE operations. NAND cells are cleared and rewritten constantly as part of its garbage collection function... Windows hasn't got a clue that it's going on. What Windows does do is offer hints as to its usage of...

In addition, I have previously seen PUBLIC BETAs prior to new major releases.
