Overview
Connector ID is a software program developed by Liquidware Labs. The most common release is 5.6.1.1, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version. Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background. Manually stopping the service has been seen to cause the program to stop functing properly. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. The primary executable is named identity.exe. The setup package generally installs about 31 files and is usually about 4.54 MB (4,764,908 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows 7 (SP1) and Windows 10. While about 62% of users of Connector ID come from the United States, it is also popular in Australia and United Kingdom.
