| Jodda | nVIDEA nView Desktop Manager Configuration Wizard. I done start -- run -- nwiz.exe = the "nView Desktop Manager" appeared. I thinik it's harmless, but pointless - for that window doesn't appear on machine bootup (shoulder shrug). |

| Benjamin | Nvidia video card manager.... |
| Steven | Application for NVIDIA Graphics cards that allows a users to have 32 virtual desktops, get a desktop larger than the viewable area of the monitor, divide the display across more than one monitor, manage applications, |
| Jason | you need this service to nicely manage multi display or tv-out setups etc... along with nvcpl.dll .... some trojans seem to break these and are difficult to fix because they rely on bits of IE 5.5 or higher to do pretty menus etc... mostly harmless in themselves... Siehe auch: Link |
 Planetmaker | I've been watching NWIZ.EXE lately and in all honesty the file is harmless. For those that are paranoid, simply create a rule within SYGATE or ZONEALARM or whatever F/W you're running to prevent connection to net. |
| Yalin | Application that allows a users to have 32 virtual desktops, get a desktop larger than the viewable area of the monitor, divide the display across more than one monitor, manage applications, and many more features.Also if you want to manage multiple monitors this seems to be neccesary. |

| Leonardo Müller | nwiz.exe is a part of NVidia's Nview features installable alongside it's graphics hardware products. This application will give the user access to additional features which allow the configuration of up to 32 monitors on a host, or to expand the desktop across many monitors. This is a non-essential process. Disabling or enabling this is down to user preference. |
| Daniel in Florida | There are 2 nwiz.exe's. nwiz.exe is indeed a utility in NVidia but www.sophos.com reports there is a virus called Agobot which also uses that name as part of its process. Agobot meant it to mean Norton Wizzard. If you have an NVidia card it's useless if you have only one monitor and can be easily turned off with Msconfig.exe and it will not turn itself back on. That's why there are conflicting descriptions of it on this page. Siehe auch: Link |
| jack | for the twats who think it is a virus, stop being so paranid. but you may be correct, that is only if a virus has actually replaced the file or embedded itself in it. And everyone else, stop paisting exactly what is found on the 1st entry found when searching on google! We've all done that search and don't need to read it again. |

| Ian Armstrong | The normal location of nwiz.exe is C:\Windows\System32\nwiz.exe - if you find it somewhere else then it is a virus. There are plenty of viruses out there which do, in fact, mimic other core files. So long as nwiz.exe is in the correct place you have NOTHING to worry about. |
 Barry | I recently became aware of a nvwiz.exe entry in my startup menu of msconfig. This happened to be around the same time my machine became compromised by a Dialer.8 variant virus *received when browsing sites*. For the past year or so, I've only been using an ATI vid card. I removed it and added an entry into my BlackIce program to kill it immediately. |
| Wes | Personal Experience tells me there is a lack of clear information from invidia about this files use. But I do not believe it to be spyware or a virus or whatever. However I do think it may have a marked inpact on sys startup (win2k user here) |
| Dominic | See Yalin Mike and Leonardo Muller. Harmless and mostly painless. The NVCplDaemon and the control centre that run RUNDLL32.exe in the background can cause you to drop out of applications (Grey top bar) which is annoying if you are typing. If you really want the super extra options that nView Desktops provide, turn it off at the Status bar. NB a Clean Machine is a mean machine. |
| Kopros | nwiz.exe is a legitimate service for nVidia graphics cards. NWIZe.EXE (notice the extra 'e') is a different filename and a different story that Robert mentioned above. I also use Zonealarm firewall and this program has never ever requested access to internet! Again though, if you DO NOT have a nVidia graphics card, you'd better remove it from your system, otherwise, just let it do it's job. If it's eating your resources, re-install your VGA drivers to correct the problem. |
 Clay ................. | replaced video card it was working and I did a recovery on my computer and now my graphics look awlful when I am on the web. I dont have the software the came with the the video card at this time are there some other way that I can go about this to make everything look as it did before I did the recovery. Can I get this cleared up without the software and or disk............... |
| saltycpo | Associated with the newer versions of nVidia graphics cards drivers. Allows you to immensely improve desktop layouts by setting preferences and optimizations. However, this isn"t necessary for the operation of your system. Siehe auch: Link |

| Mark | Associated with the newer versions of nVidia graphics cards drivers. Allows you to immensely improve desktop layouts by setting preferences and optimizations. However, this isn't necessary for the operation of your system. Xsoftspy will report it as the BAT.Mumu A virus because the virus will use this filename along with others. Search your system for Start.But if you think you have the virus and/or you do not have an nVidea card. |

| Emma | "Daniel in" = right. Theres 2 separate NWIZ files. One is a virus, it calls itself "nwiz" short for "Norton Wizard" and pretends to be part of virus protection. The other is the NVIDIA Driver which you of course don't have to be scared of :) ... If you do a Windows Search, only the "NVIDIA Driver" file will come up. Trust me, I have the virus now and is a pain to get rid of (W32.Gaobot, details available @ http://securityresponse.symantec.com) I just upgraded my computer, and am no longer using NVIDIA Drivers, but still have the NWIZ.exe file on my harddrive cos anti-virus cant get rid of it!

| Simba | The nwiz.exe process is usually a sign that your computer has been infected with the Gaobot or Agobot.iq viruses/trojans. However if you have an Nvidia graphics card, part of the nvidia drivers software will also run a process with this name. Siehe auch: Link |
| The Roppfather | Not a virus and actually useful for settings, etc... no harm in stopping it from loading during start-up using msconfig... boot time has improved slightly without it. I do NOT recommend deleting it altogether from your system though... |
