AU V6.1.0 x64: Volume Shadow Copy Service error

This applies to Ace Utilities V6.1.0. x64 and Windows 10 x64 Professional Insider Build 14267. When AU is performing a System Restore Point before cleaning out registry errors, it causes Windows 10 Volume Shadow Copy Service to generate an error as shown in the Event Viewer. This is 100% repeatable ...

AU V6.0.0.282 x64 Does not honor Ignore List.

This applies to Windows 10 x64 Professional and AU V6.0.0.282 x64. When I add items to the Ignore List, AU does not honor the ignore list and continues to detect the keys. For example if I add these items below to the Ignore List, they are continued to be detected. Report Created on 26 Sep 2015, 04:...

Re: Ace Utilities 6.0 Beta

Some very nice changes in this new version of AU. One issue that I've encountered on Windows 10 x64 Professional is that some of the element startup windows do not come to the front when first opened. For example Registry Cleaner and Startup Manager will not come to the front when first opened if o...

Re: Ace Utilities v5.9.0 Beta

On the "View" options page, should "Save column widths" be made unselectable if the user has selected "Autosize columns". Seems to me that it should.

It erased zero bytes.

The program will just delete the file, without erasing it.
ahhhh, ok. Maybe the confirmation box should have a line stating "0 bytes = File deleted by not erased" :wink:

Re: Ace Utilities v5.7 Beta

1. My recommendation is that a menu option be added in "Miscellaneous" to opt out of having the Disk Analysis added to Windows Explorer's context menu. 2. Would be great if you make the Erase Complete message box in "Secure Erase" always come to the front of the windows when it is displayed? It gets...

Re: Registry Backup and Restore (RegBak) 1.5

Thanks for the prompt response.

You might wish to release an update to AU because AU V5.6.1 does not contain a regbak64.exe file....at least it did not on my Windows 8.1.1 x64 Professional systems. I manually updated the RegBak files in my installed AU V5.6.1 per the latest release of RegBak.

* Improved the working of 'Delete all backups except the last ...' option.
* launches 64-bit version if the 32-bit version is run from a 64-bit OS.

Are these enhancements part of AU V5.6.1's RegBak component as well?

Re: Ace Utilities v5.6

Here is a before and after picture of the Task Scheduler. I took a shot of the Task Scheduler, then promptly ran the Clean Up as shown above, and then took a shot of the Task Scheduler again. Certainly looks to me that AU is doing it. By Cleanup, do you mean Erase Your History? Or is it Wizard? If ...
