    I am sure this is posted 1000 times but maybe at 1001 someone will take notice.

    My C$ drive is using a SSD (in a RAID no less) and should not be defragged. OneCare Tune-Up will defrag this disk anyway. I disabled defrag by messing with the registry in a way that one should not do but it is better then trashing my SSD disk drive or not being able to use the anti-virus software I already paid for.

    Ideally the Tune-up should adhere to the defrag schedule that is already setup through Windows Disk Defragmentor program which I have confiugred to run weekly and to ignore my C drive. It makes no sense to have 2 defrag schedules.

    If OneCare is not able to do that then you should at least have the same confiugration options as Windows Disk Defragmentor so that I can disable defrag by drives or disable defrag altogether.

    That is perhaps the most daunting thing is that you cannot disable defrag or the tune-up feature at all.

      Anyone reading this should see this post for a workaround:

      Yes, it has been posted many times before and I still don't know why this was not made a configurable option from teh beginning. At any rate, this is the last version of OneCare, so it is a moot point.

          One Care will be available for purchase through June 30 and will be fully supported through the end of 2010. Because no new features will be added does not make a product unusable.
