Overview

SpeeditApp is a program developed by Revizer Technologies. During setup, the program registers itself to launch on boot through a Windows Schedule Task in order to automatically start-up (this is typically done to avoid any UAC prompts).

Once installed, it will add an extension to both the Firefox and Chrome web browsers. The main program executable is SpeeditApp.exe. Typically most users end up uninstalling this just after a few days. The software installer includes 13 files and is usually about 4.67 MB (4,891,704 bytes). In comparison to the total number of users, most PCs are running the OS Windows 10 as well as Windows Vista (SP2). The distribution of this has mostly been seen in the United States.
