Overview
Digidesign Pro Tools M-Powered Essential 8.0.3 is a software program developed by Avid Technology.

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 setup package generally installs about 44 files and is usually about 124.04 MB (130,068,724 bytes).
