Overview

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). When installed, it will add a context menu handler to the Windows shell in order to provide quick access to the program. The main program executable is oaui.exe. The software installer includes 22 files and is usually about 87.36 MB (91,599,183 bytes). In comparison to the total number of users, most PCs are running the OS Windows 7 (SP1) as well as Windows 10. While about 46% of users of Online Armor come from the United States, it is also popular in United Kingdom and Germany.
