XP Maintenance 3.2 Announced
« on: May 12, 2010, 10:10:51 am »
Ok here is the synopsis. Don't want to seem like a jerk, I've already pretty much acted like one here anyway. And I say sorry too much.

But back to the idea:

        I am officially announcing the development of XP Maintenance 3.2. This is the first time batch will no longer be used for ANYTHING. I felt it was too much of a hassle for the idea of a simple computer maintenance program. So an array of programming languages were put on the table to replace batch files, and Visual Basic.net was selected due to how easy it is to code in VB.net. There have been a few setbacks in this new release, but development is nearing completion. The preliminary release date for Beta 1 is Saturday May 15, 2010 at 7:00 PM. If the date changes for any reason, I will post here to let you guys know. Project information and downloads can be found at http://www.xpmaintenance.com/ or http://www.joldzic.net/. Please give feedback when I release, my feedback form has returned very limited results. Thank you, and my apologies if I seemed arrogant at any time in this posting, it's the morning, I am not thinking straight. Once again, thank you. :)

What is it exactly? I couldn't find anything about what it does or actually is. Sorry if I missed something on the two pages.

It is a simple maintenance program that has been my heart and soul for the past year and a half. It evolved from a batch script written for a friend to a program that has achieved over 10,000 downloads. It has been my pride and joy of programming so to speak, because it is the first time I have ever submitted any coding to the public domain. So yeah, take a look, may get useful to keep your computer up to performance, but as it is in development, there are some bugs and no guarantees your computer will be lightning fast or anything, but it may. It just uses If statements to check the OS, and runs the appropriate chkdsk, cleanmgr, disk defrag, win defender (only on os XP or later) and other command line goodies. Hope you guys find it useful :D.

So, not to compare the two, but it is kinda like a free program version of PC Pitstop?

Yes, just much simpler. It relies on MS maintenance and management apps that are already pre-installed. The idea was to simplify the process.

It's my most important project. It will stay alive as long as I have something to say about it. XD It's not a big deal, just there was some delays, nothing that can't be overcome, of course. XD but thanks for the concern, that shows people actually care about my project. That makes me happy. :D
