How to remove annoying POPUPS ON STARTUP C:\Windows\System32\igfxtray.exe
Posted: 12-Apr-2012 11:37

Hi -

After I on intel.com tried to upgrade my graphic driver Mobile Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family my screen at startup shows a popup-box with the text:

C:\Windows\System32\igfxtray.exe

I am asked to "Run" or "Cancel" but no matter what I choose the exact same popup is shown on startup again and I have to Click 3 times on Cancel to get the box disappear - It doesnt seem to influence on my use of the laptop but its a little annoying that its shows up.

On windows.com help forum I have followed some suggestions without help except the suggestion on open Regedit because many have told med not to mess around in the Regedit

I have with no succes asked this question on a forum within intel.com

Has anyone a suggestion what to do?

Thanks in Advance

Hi

The igfxtray.exe seems to belongs to Intel driver and this file is a part of quick access software to the control panel via a System Tray icon for graphics based upon the Intel.
Usually you should see a small Intel display icon in the task bar in the right lower corner.
The igfxtray.exe controls this.

So you can also disable this in msconfig.
In search type msconfig. Then choose StarUp tab and choose remove the mark from the entry containing the igfxtray.exe
Now save the changes and reboot the unit…

That should disable this popup.

I agree with Paolo. It starts with Windows and there is entry in start-up. Just follow the steps and disable it from start-up list.
It must be listed in “System configuration > Startup”.
Check it out.

Hi and Thanks - I unmarked the file from intel using msconfig as you said but succesively had to unmark two other files from intel popping up in the same way but now it seems to work

Thanks
