Version: HDDlife 2.9.110
"Very little useful data, don't waste your time"
Pros: The install went fine and it did set a "restore point" (which I need later). It gave me the drive temps.
Cons: Would not uninstall properly. Had to access the products web page. Provided NO useful data. Data it did provide was erroneous or undefined.
Summary: This was more of a trial version to see the user interface than it was usable freeware. There was nothing of value to this version other than providing the drive temps and that is easily had elsewhere.
Upon realizing this I tried to uninstall it and unless I allowed it to "phone home" to it's web site, the uninstall hung indefinitely. Once I allowed it to phone home, the uninstall did complete. However, there were still pieces of it in the registry (and not simply accessed files or temp files).
The only good thing I can say about it is that it set a restore point which I used and am now back where I started. A total waste of time.
