File purpose and description:

dmadmin.exe is a program that most likely arrived preinstalled on your computer. This file location is also shown below, verifying the location is important as this can help identify if it is spyware or virus related, since many spyware and virus programs attempt to hide by naming the programs similiar to known programs and just locating them elsewhere on your hard drive. This program file will be found on most Windows computers as it is a preinstalled disk manager software from Veritas. This is used for various hard drive management features. This will also run as a software service. This softawre is considered safe and is not spyware, virus, or adware related. (See the details below for the actual location of this file.)

General information:
Be aware that many tasks will be similiar names to existing tasks or processes. You can always view the running tasks on your computer by pressing ctrl-alt-del to view the windows "task manager", and then view the "processes" tab. This will show you all tasks running or currently active on your PC. Although this shows you all running tasks, it does not show dll file thats are loaded, as they get loaded as part of other processes. Many spyware writers attempt to hide their files on your computer, for example, dmadmin.exe may be intentionally misspelled to look like a similiar task, or spyware may be named very similiar to a Windows system task. The reason they do this is so you cannot easily recognize the name in your tasklist as I have mentioned above. Make sure always check the location of the file if you are concerned. You can always find the location of dmadmin.exe on your computer by using your Windows search options, but I will also try to list the file location of every file described on this website, so you can verify the correct location.
