Mark: How about a simple de-OOPs to recover things like 10 years of e-mail (well actually only the last IMPORTANT month) that suddenly goes missing either for no reason at all, or, in this case, apparently a GENUINE SPONTANEOUS QUICKFORMAT of drive?
A SECOND HARDER JOB: After a 2K-7 (d/k 8/10 yet 8.1 is even just a Bob to make all our PCS terminals like our pads and phones....
eliminate the "Well drivespace is almost FREE " (AND THE SLOWEST THING ON MACHINE attitude)
1) Keep a clean copy of your preferred setup, and the Last Known Setup (essentially a copy of %system(s)% drive(s) so every boot loads either a squeaky clean or an As you left it after cleaning up the mess copy onto an ultra-HS DMA SRAM disk.
2)Cut the cost of said disk by auto-erasing unneeded parts of Windows: Like the 25 languages and their fonts you DONT use and can install from your original disk when needed, and the HUGE STACK OF ELEMENTS that Installer pasts together to give you Windows for YOUR particular Intel or Intel competitor CPUs and chipsets life - then leaves a copy of all the pieces, all the drivers for stuff you don't own, etc. Go even further, for those of us who still believe in some privacy, why not answer the old "Everybody uses only 10% of Word, trouble is, it's a different 10%" problem by allowing optional features to remain on distro disks?
It'll be a while before the fans go, but they don't slow the system.
3)Another Great Thing would move WIN7+ USER Data and PROGRAM Data to a separate portion of the drive, with a third for data in general - if not enforcing multiple drives. OTHERWISE a 12-hr day sends speed crashing as files are more and more fragmented. (well Win XP +, but I guess you'd not be allowed to make that official). While there, TweakUI for 7-10, thats all I want right now!
Anybody got any other quick jobs we can whip the guys into.
