The Smart Defrag we offer here is freeware. It is not open source.
If there is some other confusion about it you will need to be more specific what the confusion is.
so are 2 versions out there a freeware and a paid, if i understand it right?
it seem then tha the other site oversaw updates since 2022
your app site says opensource (UPDATE see app license)
i help where i can. maybe you can help me too. see in account/track
Ahh right, I see where you are looking.
It is listed incorrectly on https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/smart_defrag_portable - it should say freeware and not show the OSI license image.
John, if you see this, can you please fix it up?
It's never been open source. The homepage was just set wrong.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
