File purpose and description:
GoGear_Vibe_DeviceManager.exe is a software program which was most likely installed by you at one time or another, it would not have arrived as preinstalled software on your computer. The correct file and folder location is also listed below, and should always be verified as spyware and virus writers will often use the same named file or like named files and just locate them elsewhere in attempts to fool you. This software program is from Phillips and its an MP3 and video related program called GoGear. This will also run as a background task and will be started based on a shortcut link in your startup folder called Philips GoGear VIBE Device Manager.lnk (See the details below for the actual location of this file.)
Actual file or task name:
gogear_vibe_devicemanager.exe
File type:
This is an executable program.
File or folder location:
C:\Program Files\Philips\GoGear VIBE Device
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, gogear_vibe_devicemanager.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 gogear_vibe_devicemanager.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. You can view the entire tasklist directory with the link below.
