NDrive

Overview

NDrive is a software program developed by Naver Japan. It adds registry entry for the current user which will allow the program to automatically start each time it is rebooted. 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 primary executable is named ndriveupgrader.exe. The setup package generally installs about 22 files and is usually about 10.94 MB (11,471,803 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of those who have this installed, most are running it on Windows 7 (SP1). While about 64% of users of NDrive come from the United States, it is also popular in Taiwan and Canada.
