![]() ![]() I checked C:\ProgramData and found a folderĮasybits Magic Desktop for HP_Renamed20131220 There is no sign of it in Startup either.

If it doesn't do that then hopefully it may have gone away. ![]() I'm inclined to tick the box and see if that reinstalls an updated Magic Desktop so I can uninstall it again. ![]() Do they mean 'Don't notify me and I will do the update without asking' or does it mean 'Tick the box to stop me bothering you again'. The update invitation comes with the ambiguous message 'Do not notify me about this update', with an associated tick box.

My reaction to the update request was to use the Control Panel to uninstall the unwanted Magic Desktop program (it was there). It's something I've never used but was apparently preinstalled by HP I either missed it when I removed most of the crapware or it is lying to me when it says HP had preloaded it.
