Epistory - Typing Chronicles

Overview

Epistory - Typing Chronicles is a software program developed by Fishing Cactus.

A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version).

The setup package generally installs about 44 files and is usually about 924.19 KB (946,370 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows 10 and Windows 7 (SP1).
