Overview
BlackBerry Desktop Software 6.0.1 is a software program developed by Research In Motion. 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 primary executable is named Rim.Desktop.exe. The setup package generally installs about 48 files and is usually about 85.61 MB (89,773,830 bytes). The installed file Rim.Desktop.AutoUpdate.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 Vista (SP2). While about 68% of users of BlackBerry Desktop Software come from the United States, it is also popular in Canada and United Kingdom.
