Norton Utilities 16 Suggestion

After using NU16 for some time on a couple of different PCs I have a couple of functionality suggestions;

 

* System Health (to achieve 'good system health) - If you have an SSD as a primary (OS) disk, defragmentation and bleach options continue to pop up, despite advice NOT to defrag SSD drives. It would be a great if NU knew you had SSD's and omitted the defrag/bleach requirements to achieve good health status.

(These points also apply to the "Recommended Actions" advice)

Further to the above, I really don't want to have my run history (and Firefox history) deleted, yet these also pop up as requirements for 'good health. It would be sufficient if the the clean-up jobs ran to your saved settings - not necessarily EVERY clean up operation as is currently required.

 

Mostly aesthetic, I know, But its frustrating that I can never achieve better than FAIR system health, despite trying to do everything to maintain a healthy system.

 

Otherwise great software Symantec.  :)

Welcomt Agent77,

Excellent suggestions. I'm going to ask a moderator to move your message into the product suggestion forum so that it gets seen by those who can make a difference.

Thank you
