Yes, what I'm not clear about is, if the intention is to update the baseline anyway, why not do that first which will free up some disk space and result in less shuffling around of sectors.

Yes you got it right. It would make great sense to update the baseline before... However, you would still be required to update your baseline after the Defragging as well.... You have to realize that we created the defragger switch so that users would not have to Uninstall/Re-install RollBack Rx. The driving force behind making the quick-and-easy method described by our previous thread was to cut down on the number of steps that a users would need to go through in order to defrag thier system with a Windows file level defragger.

If we add the step to update baseline prior to defragging as well as after the defragging process - then the process would be quite comparable to Uninstalling RollBack Rx and then Reinstalling RollBack Rx after the defragging - Which was the conventional method, prior to the defragger switch being implemented.

From the perspective of RollBack Rx; when you uninstall the software it is actually updating the "Baseline" to a preferred snapshot prior to removing itself from the PC.... Then when you re-install RollBack Rx you are again updating (creating) a baseline.

The final outcome would be the same. I will get clarification on this by our development team and update whatever I find.

ps. welcome aboard!
