Sniper Elite

What is Sniper Elite?

Sniper Elite is a tactical shooter developed by Rebellion Developments.

Overview

Sniper Elite is a software program developed by Rebellion. It adds registry entry for the current user which will allow the program to automatically start each time it is rebooted. 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 software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The primary executable is named SniperElite.exe. The setup package generally installs about 31 files and is usually about 4.96 MB (5,196,197 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows 7 (SP1) and Windows 10. While about 68% of users of Sniper Elite come from the United States, it is also popular in Australia and Canada.
