How to restore WDD, after Auslogics DD uninstalled?

[scottls59901]

I installed Auslogics Disk Defrag free, and opted to replace WDD (Wrong!).
AUS caused problems, so I unticked "Replace WDD", and uninstalled it the next day-

Now when I try to start WDD, nothing happens?
I've run chkdsk & sfc /scannow, with no errors.

I've deleted the AUS folder too.

A Repair install is sooo time consuming, and I'd rather not do it.

Is there any other way to restore WDD?

Have you already checked either msconfig or better yet: services? If you're fortunate, Auslogics simply disabled or set to manual Windows built-in defragger.

As RolandJS pointed out Auslogics could have disabled the Windows Defragmenter Service. Check and make it Manual or Automatic as you may like.

Click on the Start, in the Search field type services.msc, press Enter.
