Remove FLIR Device Drivers by FLIR Systems

FLIR Device Drivers is a software program developed by FLIR Systems. The most common release is 1.6.0.0, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version. During setup, the program creates a startup registration point in Windows in order to automatically start when any user boots the PC. 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 software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The primary executable is named flir device drivers.exe. The setup package generally installs about 9 files and is usually about 822.5 KB (842,240 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 48% of users of FLIR Device Drivers come from the United States, it is also popular in Italy and Germany.
