Re: Kaspersky, You lost me at ISwift..

said by norwegian See Profile :

Just curious about this issue.

I have not seen an issue with chkdsk, and wonder why. Not that I'm trying to say it doesn't exsist, nor trying to sell this topic short. It does seem to be an issue with some I'll admit going by the long thread there, but I can't for the life of me understand why some do and some don't.

You would almost be forgiven to think it is a conflict with hardware drivers, maybe certain HDD's and the way they operate.

The issue I have with KAV-KIS6 is that, after uninstalling it, those "ISWift Hooks" are still attached to files. Pardon me but uninstalling means just that. I didn't start the complaints, I just recently joined them. KAV should put a warning label on it's boxed software and on it's website. That way, I would have unchecked Iswift and whatever the hell else it superglued to my files and system.

I am NOT going to spend energy on anything else except this;

HOW DO I GET RID OF THESE "File Thetans!" LOL..

Jim

Presently I have no answer, but seeing as this topic has started, maybe we can bring it to the devs attention, as long as we are specific to the needs required

Doing a google finds this

quote:
Sparse files provide a method of saving disk space for files that contain meaningful data as well as large sections of data composed of zeros. If an NTFS file is marked as sparse, then disk clusters are allocated only for the data explicitly specified by the application.
e.g. The Indexing Service, stores it's catalogs as sparse files.

With 8.3 filennames disabled you'll notice a performance improvement only with a large number of files (over 300,000) in relatively few folders where a lot of the filenames start with similar names. Not having 8.3 filenames available will prevent the use of old applications such as Word 2.0 and Excel 4.0
FSUTIL behavior query disable8dot3 1

If you have a lot of small files, you may need a larger Master File Table to avoid MFT fragmentation:
FSUTIL behavior set mftzone 2 will reserve 25 % of the volume for the MFT.
1 = 12.5 %(default), 3 = 37.5%, 4 = 50%

The last access time attribute of NTFS can really slow performance, if you disable it, the time set will simply be the Creation Time.
