IDrive for Windows Version - 5.0
from Pro Softnet Corp
Overview
IDrive for Windows Version - 5.0 is a software program developed by Pro Softnet Corp. During setup, the program creates a startup registration point in Windows in order to automatically start when any user boots the PC.

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 62 files and is usually about 28.8 MB (30,201,134 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows 7 (SP1) and Windows 10.
