Installing Updates of O&O Defrag
O&O Defrag automatically checks if a new version is available whenever it’s started.
If there is a new program version, you will be able to update your version. If you decide to upgrade, download the cur-
rent program version from our website under (Downloads) and save the installation file on your computer.
Suggestion: You can find your license data and the exact version number you’re using by clicking System menu in
the system menu.
So-called "Minor Updates" (Version 5.0 to 5.1, 5.2,etc.), where smaller changes in the program have been made, are
free. "Major-Updates", such as from version 5 to 6, must generally be purchased.
l Your license data will normally be saved during Minor Updates so you won't have to enter them again after a suc-
cessful installation. To be on the safe side, we do recommend keeping your license key for the current version
within easy reach - just in case you run into trouble.
l "Major Updates" will require the new license that you receive upon purchasing the software.
To install an update, please do the following:
1. Double-click the O&ODefrag installation file to start the new installation.
2. Follow the installation dialogs.
3. Once finished, the new version is fully installed.
4. Please restart your computer when prompted.
5. Please enter your license key in the Registration Wizard at the first start of O&O Defragg. If you don't own a
valid O&O Defrag license key, you can use O&O Defrag as a trial version for a limited time.
