  2. Optimize drive schedule is set but never runs

    I really don't understand these type of bluff suggestions.

    This has nothing to do with the original question.

    Please suggest something related or not at all.

    Defragment & Optimize Drives Reports "Never run"

    Since upgrading to Windows 10 2004, I have encountered an issue with the tool Defragment & Optimize Drives. First of all, let me state that I have a SSD and realize that defragmentation is not needed. However, I find it odd that the tool reports "Never run" and "Needs optimization."


    I am able to run the tool and it appears to run the optimization command properly but upon reboot it returns to the above "Never run" and "Needs optimization" statements. Also, the "Analyze" button is never available (greyed out). None of this was an issue prior to the update. Thusfar, this is the only oddity I have discovered with the update. Has anyone else encountered this? Any suggestions on how to fix? I don't really want to uninstall the update over this one issue. Thanks in advance!

    WinVer: 2004 (OS Build 19041.264)
