WebBar 4.7.5910.29102

Overview

WebBar 4.7.5910.29102 is a software program developed by WebBar. 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. 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). A majority of users end up uninstalling this less than a week of it being installed. The setup package generally installs about 10 files and is usually about 3.59 MB (3,761,652 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows 10 and Windows 7 (SP1). While about 69% of users of WebBar come from the United States, it is also popular in Germany and United Kingdom.
