    Hello, I'm wondering if someone know the newest version of the Defrag Diskeeper Lite, the free version and where to get it. Yesterday I did searches and only came up with 3.0,,that seems really old ?? Thanks and sorry, but I did look.

    Excellent, we have a winner

    Pete C, I feel awful :eek: dopey because I love Google and I use it for EVERYTHING. I did use it for this problem but I only found the earlier ver.
    This is great, just what I want..Here is a little gift for the good people in this Forum..
    A way to remove that "Nag Screen" from Diskeeper Lite;

    :D Diskeeper Lite is a great freebie but the nag screen is extremely intrusive. So intrusive that it goaded subscriber "Koolance" to find a way of removing it. Here's the way he did it:

    "1. First make sure you have set file extensions to be displayed in Windows Explorer. To do this open Explorer and go to Folder Options / View tab and uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types ".

    2. Open Notepad and without writing anything select File / Save as and then name the file "ShowHtml.exe ". In other words create a blank file of that name.

    3. Open the directory you installed Diskeeper Lite in. Normally this is C:\Program Files\Executive Software\DiskeeperLite. Copy and Paste the file you just created into this folder. Select YES when ask if you want to replace the existing file.

    That's it. No more nag screen! The buttons in Diskeeper Lite that bring up the "Nag Screen" will now do nothing. If you want to, go back to Folder Options-->View tab and un-check "Hide extensions for known file types ".

    Paul - you're welcome :) - and thanks for the tip on removing the nag screen which I am sure will please a few folks. I actually use Diskeeper Pro and will pass on that.
