Magnifico
by Mixel
Overview
Magnifico is a program developed by Mixel. Upon installation, it defines an auto-start registry entry which allows the program run on each boot for the user which installed it. 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 software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The software installer includes 45 files and is usually about 1.25 GB (1,344,807,048 bytes). In comparison to the total number of users, most PCs are running the OS Windows 10 as well as Windows 7 (SP1). While about 62% of users of Magnifico come from the United States, it is also popular in France and Netherlands.
