What is Microsoft Default Manager?

Located in: "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Microsoft\Search Enhancement Pack Manager\DefMgr.exe. It's in the boot on the CCleaner list, and I just wanted to know what it does, and if it is safe to turn it off. I use Windows 7 Home Premium.

Hello

Microsoft Default Manager sets the default search on your browser and lets you know when other programs try to change these settings. You can also opt in or out of a program that allows Microsoft to collect additional information about your system configuration.

If you have installed Windows Live Essentials, Microsoft Default Manager will be installed in your computer. It is a part of the Bing toolbar.

The process is called DefMgr.exe and is located C:\Program Microsoft Search Enhancement Manager Pack\Installers\Default folder. You can also access it via the Start Menu > all programs.

Note: It is not recommended to disable Microsoft default manager.

    Hello

    Seems that you have installed EasyDriver Pro.

    ----------------------------------------

    BTW, I don't really recommend autopilot set on day of utilities they will all eventually
    fail and translated generally with spectacular (BAD). Better to update the drivers manually direct
    the machine system, motherboard manufacturer and the sites of the other OEM manufacturers.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
    It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

  • I deleted "Microsoft Download Manager" can I get it back? I have advanced system care and you can see everything that has been deleted (a lot), he's all in compuer talk... Any ideas?

    I deleted "Microsoft Download Manager" thought it was a temp program (not paying attention!)  Now I programs looking for paths!  The figure that it took a lot of information with it.

    I have advanced system care and can see all the things that I deleted in the last two days (and that's a lot) it's in the jargon...  Windows XP SP3 32-bit
    I know it's a long shot, but can someone help?

    Yes, at the time of the download, not sure that I need, but now I do what I have programs that can not open or cannot perform when they do.

    So, to retrieve the 'ways' of things...

    Can you give an exact message of one or two of them?

    PATH NOT FOUND covers a lot of ground - but it would be good if there is more to it and a program of a name or two that gives you this question.  (So we know if it is only third stuf or Microsoft and other third-party things.)

    Have you tried to reinstall the stuff that gives you errors?

    Hi Araud,

    What programs do you speak? Remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

    This problem can occur because of no present conflicts of Microsoft programs on the computer, I suggest you try the following steps:

    Step 1: Put the computer to clean and test start

    Follow step 1 in the link below,

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.

    Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service.

    After find you the program that is causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program, if you rarely use that you should consider uninstalling the software.

    Important: n ' forget not the computer to start normal follow step 7 in the link.

    Thank you, and in what concerns:

    If the turns HARD disk and OS write or read on/from the HARD drive, so the temperature increases, but if you use the laptop only for internet, so the temperature of the HARD drive remains on the low level.
