AdobeGCInvoker is their anti piracy file "Adobe Genuine Copy". The program really slows the computer at startup, and locks bootup awaiting server response. This is particularly noticeable if on the road with no Internet access. Usually EOL software is noticeable, when instead of developing, their lawyers get involved with restrictions. Another 5-10 years left, sell Adobe short. Moved to Affinity Photo GREAT PROGRAM. When an Acrobat alternative appears, their fate will be sealed. -= The Soothsayer =-

Your software is great! But it won't allow me to remove AGCInvokerUtility.exe which is why I downloaded it! Why do some of the files allow me to check them to be deleted and the ones I need to delete not?

This is a very serious issue which Adobe do not seem to be very interested in stopping. I have an issue where it is preventing me upgrading my MS Office suite. Adobe are beginning to think they are Gods and can do whatever they like.

My concern is Task Manager cites this program as having a "medium" impact at startup. I suspect it also "checks" on a regular basis as I doubt it just goes away after startup. I deeply resent paying for software and then paying for more and more elaborate hardware to satisfy all the "extras" the software wants me to run.

Just noticed this file in msconfig startup files which I check periodically to keep streamlined from endless software additions I don't request to automatically start and slows my system during reboots. If I don't 'need' this to startup why would I leave it check marked to run? I won't, it's gone.
