Pragma 6

Overview

Pragma 6 is a software program developed by Trident Software. The most common release is 6.0.101.11, 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 primary executable is named pkernel.exe. The setup package generally installs about 60 files and is usually about 57.45 MB (60,240,573 bytes). The installed file p6update.exe is the auto-update component of the program which is designed to check for software updates and notify and apply them when new versions are discovered. Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows 7 (SP1) and Windows 7. While about 37% of users of Pragma 6 come from UA, it is also popular in the United States and Russia.
