Overview
Copper Point of Sale Software is a software program developed by NCH Software. The most common release is 1.35, 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.

Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. 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 primary executable is named copper.exe. The setup package generally installs about 8 files and is usually about 1.82 MB (1,906,320 bytes).
