Is errorrepairtool.exe safe or is this task spyware?



Purpose of errorrepairtool.exe:









File purpose and description:

ErrorRepairTool.exe is an executable file, and it most likely was installed by you as it would not have arrived as preinstalled software on your computer. Always check the file location which is shown below, as this is a way to verify you have the correct file. Spyware or virus writers use similiar names in hopes to fool you into thinking its a good file, but they place the spyware in other disk locations with the similiar or same name. This file has been reported as a rogue file, and it is reported as part of a rogue antispyware program that tries to force you to purchase their product. If this file were on my computer I would take action to remove this immediately and reboot your machine so it is no longer running (Verify it is no longer in your startup after running). Also look for rpitsp.exe as they may be combined together and you may find both. (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, errorrepairtool.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 errorrepairtool.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.
