| There seem to be 2 files with this name. One of the files has to do with my hewlett packard printer software, but the other is a prefetch? file. It shows up when I do a search and when I shut down. It does seem to track. |
| Whenever I shut down, it pops up a window saying it is closing all programs even when there are no programs open. When you choose to skip this operation, the error for "program not responding" comes up. Anonymous |
| Annoying. It calls upon 2 other programs called hptskmgr.exe and HPOSM.exe. It is these child programs that you see coming up on screen. I have now disable the hpcmpmgr.exe in msconfig. Ricky |
| Usually involved when windows crashes! dont know when it was installed. I would like to get rid of it. Doesnt show in the remowe sw list. Can it be done manually in WExplorer? Henrik |
| irritating, runs every 15 mins my machine, I disabled it Scott |

| HP Printer Driver file that comes corrupt due to conflicts with another device, which is why it often fails to close properly when you ShutDown your computer. Install the patch by clicking the 'Link' to fix the problem. See also: Link Dave M |
| On my computer, it appears as a no-name application in the task bar every 15 min, and last about 1 second. Sometimes its annoying, so I just delete the process. Joe P |
| Causes an empty task bar entry to flash on the screen and briefly take keyboard focus. Very annoying, exp when using a full screen app like a directx game. don |
| prevents a "restart from occuring, as this program doe snot shut down like other programs. YOu must kill it manually befor ethe restart can complete. Patty Richardson |
| Runs every 15 minutes disabling screen saver. If screen saver is set for 15 mins or more it will never invoke. Dangerous if you use screensaver passwords as your unit will not be protected. Rob |

| Causes also MS Flightsim 2004 to a state "Paused". Very frustrating. Therefore I will remove this app. Only could trace its name etc with System Safety Monitor (SSM) See also: Link Paul |
| i always get an error thats titled: "windows - no disk" then it says "there is no disk in the drive. please insert disk into drive." this happens at various times, forinstance when i open and close itunes, sometimes when i start up my computer it never stops coming up. when i go to log off user and log in again (which usually fixes it), it always says hpcmpmgr.exe not responding. i suspenct it has something to do with the problem. sorry if some of this doesn't makes sense im kind of in another place See also: Link smizzack |
| Every 15 minutes in launches then disapears. A network service (svchost.exe) becomes very active at this time. When I attempt to do a screen capture it is diabled unitl just as the process closes. This infers that screen capture is busy and therfore hptsmgr.exe is capturing your screen and broadcasting it to the internet. Besides the hpcoretech folder there is a folder "C:Program files\Overland\Overland.cab" which contains an hptskmgr.exe. Once hptskmgr.exe is stopped computer performance improved dramatically. Because hptskmgr.exe disapears after running it does not always show up in Hijack. David |
| It is a computer component manager application. Anonymous |

| It is used by HP to find ugraded drivers on the internet for HP products. If a problem, can be disabled in the Startup section after using "msconfig" Dave T. Hero |
| same as joe p every 15mins opens for 1sec just long enough to turn off screen saver klow |
| HP should keep making hardware, leaving software production to people who can do it. User |
| Defintely not the most well built program. |
| It runs fine for days then suddenly consumes 100% of the system cpu, only way to fix this is to use Task Manager to kill it, the patch DOES NOT FIX THIS PROBLEM !! SOBrien |
| Runs every couple of minutes. Does not show up in Windows Rask Manager except when it is running - usually only for about 10 seconds. For that 10 seconds keyboard, mouse and programs halt functining. Very annoying. Since it only appears in Windows Task Manager when it is running and input devices are disables, ir cannot be removed. Gary |
| Slowly kills monitors because it quickly pops up a window every 15 minutes thus de-activating the screen saver so cannot keep PC on permanently Paul |
| hpcmpmgr is launched in the registry. It launches other programs such as hptskmgr which causes the refocus and interruption of screensavers and full screen programs. I communicated with hp and they say to rename or delete the hptskmgr. I just removed the registry start menu run for it. Charles |
| On my computer this program was added by HP to the System Configuration Utility, which activates this file on startup. After half a year this file crashed restarting itself every second which was very annoying. Finaly at every new session I had a promt saying that the was a error. After that I removed the file form SCU typing "msconfig" in "Run" in "Start". X-LEO |

| HP Component Manager |
| HP Component Manager - HP bloatware GARBAGE. Kills my screensaver and drops me to the desktop when gaming. Disable it by going into the registry. Just search for hpcmpmgr.exe - you should find it in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Run. Just delete the entry and it will never start up again. If you want to check for updates periodically, just set a shortcut to "hpcmpmgr.exe" and run it manually. Brent |
| Not dangerous, however it can cause problems. This process is used by several HP products. It is the main proces for the HP Component Manager, it is non-essential, but is still important. See the link for better information. (Recomended) Justin |
| It causes problems with IE 7, when I start it takes forever to load a homepage and it will not load until I CTRL-ALT-DLT and end it from memory. Angry HP printer owner |
| It's HP AiO Component. It isn't the cause of svchost.exe's activities: it's the network scanner. GV |

| Printer will not print from Dell computer. Will not copy period. Wastes paper and say to check print cartridge. Betty J. Sunday |
| Its not dangerous unless you use screen saver as password protection. Its a program that checks for HP photo printer updates. Just use msconfig to disable it from startup it wont stop your printer from working. or you can use spybot search and distroy advance settings and go to system startup then look for it there and disable it then restart your pc.

| I know it locked up my harddrive,light stayed solid all the time. Jeff |
| Can be 100% safely removed from being "autorun" during Win StartUps! Use msconfig.exe to do so, or if you really know how to edit the Win Registry, disable it from there, using the search facility! That's an EXPERT opinion, enough said!!! Mpampos Apo Orounta! |
