Overview

System Explorer 4.2.2 is a software program developed by Mister Group. 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 programs's main executable is systemexplorer.exe and has been seen to consume an average CPU of less than one percent, and utilizes about 15.71 MB of memory. It also includes a system tray icon that is displayed in the notifications area while the program is running. The setup package generally installs about 8 files and is usually about 6.18 MB (6,479,605 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 35% of users of System Explorer come from the United States, it is also popular in Germany and Japan.
