Thanks for the kind words! I appreciate it

On the lower right corner of KZfaq videos is the settings icon (it looks like a gear). If you click on that it opens a menu. One of the choices is playback speed. You can play videos faster or slower, depending on your needs. It increases or decreases the speed without changing the pitch of the audio. You might find that useful for other videos.

Thank you so much!

Love to hear that! Thanks for all your support.

I just want to clarify one thing, we do not track ANYTHING that's happening inside a user's PC. Nothing is sent to us. Feel free to monitor the network traffic using software like Fiddler. And yea you're right, we'll probably disable the auto start because unless someone is using Turbo mode or Delay startup, it doesn't need to be started automatically. But if you look at the RAM and background process, System Utilities uses VERY LITTLE resources.

@@KevinDesRoches I think you're confusing it with "Pegasus". Which is an Israeli spyware. We are Pegasun and based in Phoenix, AZ, USA. Completely unrelate.

@@Pegasun I can confirm that it's not actually tracking and sending data back (beyond checking for updates). But starting it up with windows? Why?... Just... why? Like I said, the irony of including a feature about start up programs wasting resources when your own software is doing the same thing is bad optics at best, bad practice at worst. Even if someone is desperate enough to use Turbo or Delay startup, this should NOT be auto launched, it should be done manually, by choice, AFTER the OS has fully loaded. Delaying or shutting down services that windows needs to operate correctly will lead to endless problems for users if done while the OS is still loading. After the OS loads, hey, roll the dice, cross your fingers and go for it. But having it interfere with the startup process is a fast track to windows hell because windows itself is so badly programmed that it will pitch a fit and BSOD if it so much runs into a missing icon during startup (exaggerating of course, but not by much lol). The "very little resources" is what programmers tell themselves and others to convince them they should leave it running, along with the bajillion other little programs "using very little resources". What you all fail to account for is the cumulative effect of all of these things combined. Your app uses a little, another app uses a little, another app uses a little and next thing you know you're waiting half an hour for your PC to boot up and wondering why it's crashing (which is clearly all the apps fighting for limited resources, especially so if your turbo or delayed startup is trying to shut them down while they're fighting back). 80% of all computers I repair/optimize because they are slow is due to apps running at startup that really don't need to be. And the other 20% are crashing because they are running or have used programs like this to "debloat" windows etc. News flash folks, doesn't matter how much "debloating" you do, nothing you remove is going to make your PC or the OS faster. You want speed, buy new parts and upgrade. You want to make the best of what you have, disable non essential startup apps. Several parts of your program are actually wrong, although I haven't had time to really pour over it all, but the Win11 Optimizer, right off the bat, shows cortana running on my system.... considering I obliterated every trace of that useless app years ago why does your app still think it's running? Same with OneDrive, while I do have it installed it's physically disabled and can't start on it's own (confirmed via several task managers and command line). Tuning SSD's and HDD's? That's gonna stuff up a few drives and mess with file explorer etc (putting it mildly). And why do you have a defrag option? Defragging stopped being a thing about a decade ago. Every time you step away to go pee or grab a beer windows will adjust things. And by default nowadays it avoids breaking things into too many pieces. Plus if you have an SSD it doesn't matter if files are stored in 10 different places because it can fetch them just as easily as if they were all in one place. Defragging was required in the "old" days of HDD's because you had a read/write head that had to physically move around, thus taking forever if bits of a file were spread out. SSD's don't have any moving parts, it's just electrons zipping around. And amazingly MS has done a decent job over the years of coding windows to try to keep files together more rather than just using the first free space it finds. And who exactly decides what's an unneeded task or background task or scheduled task? There's no list of what exactly that does or how the decision is made or any option to choose what should be done and what should be left alone. Admittedly I haven't actually clicked that link, lest it do something without anymore interaction and brick my system. Once I've had a chance to make a backup image I won't care, I can restore it in 5 minutes so maybe over the weekend I'll play with all the options just to see what they do. Disable windows update...again, why?.... just why? Remove that feature as it will do nothing. No matter how thoroughly you think you've done the job of disabling windows updates they will still happen, there's literally nothing you can do to stop them save disconnecting from the internet. Disabling the updates does nothing, it'll just re-enable itself a few minutes after you disable it and there's about 100 hidden tasks and scripts that will make sure it runs no matter what you do. So that feature is just taking up space, it won't actually work. If you want to you can turn updates off via the windows update section in windows settings (windows pro users only), for windows home users you can only pause it for 7 days. There's more... a lot more. But rather than write an entire book series on youtube I will do some proper testing of things and email it in to your company email and you can do what you will with my suggestions. Really though there are hundreds of apps that do exactly what yours does and they are all really quite useless as they won't speed up your PC at all. Might clean your drive, but won't make anything really any faster. It does add a bit of convenience in having some of that stuff in 1 place rather than 50 different places in windows settings but really there's a lot of room for improvement to make the software actually useful to users rather than just another app taking up space making claims it can't back up in it's current state.

​@whmxtra I have to agree with you..."You want speed, get new parts....", equipment.... I buy new equipment nearly every year, the latest and greatest, thou it is quite expensive. My experience from the distant pass has been that programs like this had cost me so much trouble and expense in the end.

@@richardlansing Ouch, every year? That's a bit excessive hehe. In reality your system only needs upgrading (hardware wise) when it will no longer do what you want it to do. Your best bet is to save that money and either put it towards something else or save it up to buy a few new parts every other year instead. Realistically once your system is built there is very little you can do to make it faster. You can buy a faster drive but if the new drive is only 5% faster than the old one you aren't going to notice the difference. And ram speed is subjective, whatever speed your current ram is running at is good enough for that machine, each motherboard has a fixed speed limit so faster ram may not make any difference at all and even if the system supports it you will only gain a few milliseconds here and there so it's not really worth it to upgrade from (for example) 3200 to 3600 or 4000. That's a tiny amount and anything faster probably won't work on your system. Really there's 4 ways to improve your computers performance: 1. Upgrade CPU, but you can only go so far depending on the motherboard you have so as long as your current CPU is doing what you need it to do it's not worth upgrading (unless you are willing to upgrade to a much faster CPU but that requires a new motherboard as well, both of which are expensive but worth doing every couple of years if you can afford it) 2. Upgrade Drives, but again a few percent faster than your old one won't really make a difference. But if you're using an older SSD drive then it might be worth upgrading if only for the larger size and reliability as an older SSD is "that" much closer to potentially failing (average lifespan is usually a good 6-7 years under normal usage). So replacing an older SSD with a newer SSD (preferably nvme if you have an m.2 slot on your board, and you should in this day and age hehe). 3. Upgrade GPU, this is what will actually make the most difference in terms of performance, especially gaming. But buying a new one every year is pointless and a waste of money since half the "new" GPU's are only a few % better than what you probably already have and the other half will actually be worse. I'd suggest keeping whatever card you have till you run into a game that you can't play on at least medium settings. Then do a bit of research and buy a faster card (take into account your motherboard and power supply as newer cards need more power and often a 500 watt PSU won't be enough). 4. Upgrade Ram, now I don't mean to a faster speed, what I do mean is more of it. 16 GB is the minimum really nowadays *my opinion*. Anything less than that will cause a bottleneck because some things (like MS Edge) will run poorly without a lot of ram to work with, plus if you're gaming 8 gigs is not going to cut it for most games. Now having said that 32 gigs is better, both for gaming, general cpu tasks and future proofing. Anything over 32 is a waste of time and money unless you are either editing videos a lot or some other form of content creation that requires working with large files and large programs. Overall though it's not really useful to upgrade every year. Computers, much like phones, only get incremental tiny little increases in performance from year to year so the "new" thing isn't going to be so much better that it makes you go "WOW". Better to keep what you have till it stops doing what you need it to do in a reasonable amount of time, then figure out where the bottleneck is and upgrade that component. Much cheaper in the long run :P

Absolutely!

@@Kingreddoberman Ah gotcha, yea that makes a lot of sense. Spinning hard drives are usually the weakest point in any PCs. An upgraded SSD improves the performance of everything so much.

Thank you!

I've tried Linux and it's trash & already moved back to windows.

@@AakashKumar-tn6yh I still have a dualboot. Sometimes i use linux for watching videocd's i bought in the early 90's. Excellent quality just much better than in Windows, like when i played them in the 90's I am absolutely sure that they destroy the codecs on purpose. My dvd's are not displayed as 720p anymore. It looks terrible since a few weeks now, both in linux and windows. So now i have to buy an old dvd player. And an old laptop so i can transfer my files from my phone directly. It all goes by googledrive and onedrive. I think the consumption of electricity in the whole world has increased a lot. We are talking about googol-Watts Worldwide man. I was already annoyed by the 50 unwanted -spam and - phishing emails every mail-account (on average) recieves every day. And then all the data must be stored on servers. How much bs is on YT and other social media platforms ?! For entertainment okay but misinfo and lies. What about the screens that are recorded of displays that is on the internet sent to datacentres. It really is insane. If they suspect somebody of something they can get acces to everything and follow their connections. I think that is enough to follow.

Never

Hi Paul you said somthing about discount ?

That is awesome to hear! Thanks for letting me know.

Hi there, no worries at all. One license is good for 3 PCs so it should cover you. If you need more just email us.

This optimization should help make it faster. There is nothing specific you can do for Windows search besides general optimization. Other thing you can do is exclude big folders from search so less files are indexed.

1. I added more things like tune up, scan and repair, better optimizations. It should be overall better and faster to apply everything. 2. Oh shoot you're right! It should be "required", not "optional". My mistake. Thankfully, Pegasun completely disabled both optional and required so in the end it doesn't really matter.

Hi there, it's Pegasun. I just wanted to clarify because Pegasus is a spyware. And lastly, we offer a completely free version of the software with a few limited functionality.

Only the last 2 part requires a premium license. Everything else is completely free.

Hi there, hmm. Does it ever finish? Are you experiencing errors on your system? If so, a full Windows Reset will probably solve all your issues. I have a video on that as well how to backup your files and restore them after a reset.

Hi there, yes it's still available! Feel free to email me at paulm at pegasun if you're having any issues.

It is. It's mostly just stuff he probably copied, not knowing that it was garbage to begin with.

That's awesome to hear!

Hi there! Unfortunately, I don't know any. Almost all performance tests are benchmarks designed for CPU, GPU, RAM, or all of them. I don't think you'll see difference using these programs. Probably the only way to tell right now is to get a feel for it yourself. For example, does your PC startup faster? Does your browser load faster? Websites load faster? Etc.

@@Pegasun I’m confused, if you “don’t know any”, how are you able to claim “system performance improvement”? Also, I’ve just started using your software and checked for the “Restore Point” meant to have been created by the software, but there’s none there (from your software process). I’m now a little apprehensive to proceed, any tips at this stage, Paul?

We would manually test every day regular PC usage. And compare startup times, browsing times, loading times, etc. We've done all these tests manually and rely on user feedbacks as well. There aren't really any programs that does it. As for your system restore, did you make sure it was turned in? Can you try to create a restore point again and see if you're able to see it?

​@@Pegasun I think he meant "task manager" performance tab.

Oh gotcha! You can skip those section. Most of them would be completed by Windows Optimizer anyway.

Hi there, it's not a malware. Feel free to scan our software on VirusTotal. You might be thinking of "Pegasus", which is a spyware.

Love to hear that! Thank you

Hi there, glad it worked! As for the BSOD, hmm that one is very weird. Usually those are hardware related, not software. If it happens again, please feel free to contact me at paulm at pegasun com, I can help you debug it if you capture the error code

Turn off start with windows in pegasun settings, and do not enable turbo or delayed startup stuff in pegasun till windows is fully loaded (for most systems with a decent SSD that's about 2 minutes after you see your desktop). @Pegasun ... see this is what I was talking about in my other post.... using something like turbo or delaying some start up tasks while the OS is still loading is a recipe for disaster. FYI those are NOT usually hardware related, it's a driver issue, meaning something interfered with a critical driver that was loading at the wrong time. It's often quite random as even if the same startup apps and order are maintained some things will load faster sometimes and slower at other times, depending on what stage other things are at. So you just got unlucky that 1 time. Won't be the last if you have pegasun starting with windows and are using turbo/delayed startup features. Interfering with the windows boot process is the absolute worst thing you can do with your PC (even worse than throwing it out a window :P).

Hmm if it said "completed" on the black screen, that's fine. It's probably a bug on the app.

Hi Graham, yes it sure does. PC Cleaner cleans it though.

Hi there, if the settings are really different you can probably skip the first section. Windows optimizer would do step 1 automatically anyway.

Hi there, yes. Windows update still works after this. We don't disable any critical service.

@@Pegasun thanks for the reply

Win 11 was supposed to be able to support newer games and DirectX12 better. You can follow the same steps for Windows 11 as 10.

I'm really sorry to hear that! May I ask which one wiped your files? Only the PC Cleaner deletes junk files. None of the other ones do.

Hey there, yes it does. You do still need to run Windows Optimizer manually though. But that can be ran once every 2 - 3 months or after a big Windows update.

Many thanks.

I appreciate that a lot! Thank you

Awesome to hear! Thanks for the comment.

Thanks for the comment! I am biased but based on many our testing, Pegasun is a bit more aggressive but people notice much more of an optimization.

@@Pegasun I'll give it a go and let you know what I think. Thanks :)

@@Pegasun Just downloaded Pegasun and was doing a Startup Manager/Boost Startup and it crashed and I got an error message. If you want, I can send you a screenshot.

@@CocoDave37 That's very weird. And yes, sure thing! You can contact me at paulm at pegasun

It's not bad but the security is much lower. It's not something you can fix with an anti-virus either.

Good question honestly. I'm not 100% sure of the answer. If all lanes are 4.0, I don't think it matters. For my motherboard, one is 2.0. If it was me and gaming was my main priority, I would probably put that on the 4.0 lane. I think O.S. is more than fine running on 2 lanes. But you have both 4 lanes so once again, it doesn't matter for you.

No idea which drive is better, but for the last years I installed not directly into drive / partition, but into a .vhdx Benefits: a) you can add more OS installs without many partitions, which saves the space not needed on a partition. Double boot is a safety precaution. b) you can backup each OS install by just copying the specific .vhdx file to external disk - restore points will might fail if disk or partition is unreadable. Cost is minimal if you want to have Win11 and Win10 on your machine. Or you can install only for safety reasons without key, use your key-version and install after 180 days again... Read up on MS on how to install into .vhdx

To clone your drive use a program called Acronis.

Feel free me to email me at paulm at pegasun, I can look into that for you on why it charged you full price. Hmm 100gb is a lot... I would click on "size" to sort it by file size. And I would try to determine what it's trying to delete. If you selected ONLY junk files, it should be fine. However, if you selected more things I would definitely verify.

Hi there, you can scan our software on VirusTotal to at least see it's clean. And if you don't like the optimization, you can completely revert it as well.

Hi James, please feel free to email me at paulm at pegasun and I can try and help you get it fixed. At the very least, I would first try System Restore. As for drivers, if they are not restored, you might need to download and re-install them.

@Pegasun Thanks, Paul. I have been successful in getting my Bluetooth to work. Still no sound through speakers. I'm contemplating just ordering a CD that will allow me to install my drivers.

@@jamesmcnichol3908 Oh sounds great. No worries at all. If you know the model number of your Bluetooth (It should tell you on Device Manager), you can search for the driver online. You can also try Windows update and see if it can download it.

@@jamesmcnichol3908 You would need to download the driver (if it's been removed). Do you have the model of your sound card? E.g. is it RealTek?
