 | Not a lot, Intel derived, has to do with video driver; really annoying, takes a good % of system resources when it is running--bogs down response speed. NotSoSureAboutIntel |
 | This file is associated with the common user interfacefor Intel graphics cards. It is a legitimate program, but it isn't required. I disabled it and did not see any reverse consequences. Muriel |
| Has to do with Intel Graphic Chipsets. Often installed together with igfxtray.exe which gives quick access to the Intel graphics driver options none |
 | igfxpers.exe is a process installed alongside NVidia graphics cards and provides additional configuration options for these devices. This program is a non-essential process, but should not be terminated unless suspected to be causing problems. Arbiter |

 | It's fine under C:\Windows\Drivers\Intel 915G Graphics (or similar). If it starts showing up in multiple instances under System32 or System 32 subfolders it's Malware. Shoot it. Chris D. |
| keep it if you can (doesnt harm ur computer) im not sure the effects of letting it go Richae |
| On UMPCs this process is essential if you run the display in a scaled resolution, i.e. any other resolution than the native screen resolution (which is 800x480 for all the 2006 era UMPCs with 7-inch touch screen displays). When you shut down/standby/hibernate the UMPC, this process will return the display resolution to 800x480 so that when it restarts the display will be synchronized with the touch screen resolution. If you disable this process, then the screen will not be dropped to the native resolution and when you restart, your touch screen and display will be scaled differently. Evan Easton |

| It was installed with the Intel video driver I installed. It did not damage my system, but whenever I booted it/used video acceleration features, the screen would flicker a few times. Disabling it made my flickering problems disappear entirely. JBot |
| Installed as part of Intel oboard graphics drivers along with igfxtray. Possibly not essential. |
| Installs with Intel Video Drivers. Safe to disable from startup. Provides fast access to intel graphics roperties Gonzalo |

| This is just a graphics file, nothing to worry about Voldemort |
| PC hangs up closing Windows XP with a message that IGFXPERS is not responding. Larry Hyer |
| its for NVidia graphics card but my TuneUp utilities says that many viruses use this file to hide or to run... Tune Up Utilities says : very dangerous file , so i disabled it... Painkiller |
 | useless. applications are a waste of memory and cpu time if they aren't being used. JohnRog |
| Intel Graphics Card- not required Gary |
| I remove it from registry, don't think it 's essential. tony |
| Got it with anything with NVida cards installed Chris |
| Video card Bill |
| not exclusively for NVidia. I have Intel Sly |
| This file is part Intel graphics card drivers (video integrated onboard), not NVidia. Harmless to disable try and see. Alex |
| IGFX persistence module. Installed as part of Intel Graphics Media Accelerator Driver. Provides configuration options. |
| Depending on where it's placed in your Computer it could be hazardous. Check C:/WINDOWS/system32 if it's in that file anywhere with igfx, delete all files possible. John |
| Useful program if you use laptop in different screen modes, such as dual screen. With memory options useful if you use both additional external screen or projector for presentations. Not needed if on laptop only ever own screen is used in native resolution. Karbunkle |
| For no known reason, my Toshiba Equium P200 laptop PC with Intel graphics accelerator black screens after login (can only start with Safe mode) if this file is enabled in MSCONFIG startup. I have disabled it and all is well no, but I don't know the mechanism for this or why it should suddenly have started to do this. Brian |
| Often reappears when using Windows Media player, and also seems to create other .exe files that can be seen in the process tab of the task manager. HotToddie |
| TROJAN FOUND TWICE by BitDefender, infected file was in several subfolders of Windows and is recopied unless ALL are eliminated. (Not originally dangerous, but subject to infection) |
| provides additional configuration options fot NVidia graphics cards Tigger 2000 |
| After an update to my laptop, my battery started running down faster. Checked processor under task manager, found that this file was running the processor at 50% and running the battery down. Very annoying. PAR |
| It is a Intel Graphics driver for NVIDIA graphics cards. This was in the run (startup) section in the registry. I Think it is for a touch screen PC Tablet device. |
| igfxtray.exe,hkcmd.exe and igfxpers.exe eat more that 10 MB of my precios RAM. disable them from starting and then just make a shortcut on desktop to c:\windows\system32\igfxcfg.exe Genious of Windows |
| I believe it is part of the intel graphics driver Acidburn |
| IGFX is missing RedMachine60 |
| stop saying nvidia!!! it's igfxpers that's "i" for intel, "gfx" for Graphics, "pers" for persistance. Files associated with programs are almost always acronyms for what they are and what they do. As for why it's called persistance, I would imagine it's there to persistantly monitor the Intel device and enforce settings. Great chance you have a virus if you've never had intel graphics or have never attempted to install the software for the device. It would be a good trick because I see it on ~80% of the few thousand computers I've worked on(remote support). Boyish Charm |
| Process come with intel graphic driver Dilushan |
| igfxpers is intel graphics persistance. Gerrieboy11 |
| As stated, this is INTEL - part of Intel chipset driver package Applejack |
| virus - avast identifies and deletes. This igfxpers.exe comes in system32 directory and creates autorun.inf and cwsandbox directory. It disables system restore also. Krishnan |
| HKLM:Run csrss C:\WINDOWS\system32\igfxpers.exe |
| It's the intel graphics persistance file. It forces the settings you set in the Intel chipset menu on other applications. It's safe but takes up unnecessary memory so I disable it. Daniel K |
| This process is for Intel's Common User Interface Module for systems using Intel's integrated graphics, such as Intel HD Graphics 2000, 3000, as well as for many of the other chipset integrated graphics solutions provided by Intel. It poses ABSOLUTELY NO HARM to your system, nor is it resource or cpu intensive. Also, I must say the vast majority of comments left by other users are from completely ignorant people who know little to nothing of which they speak. It's not from nvidia. It's not resource or cpu intensive. It causes no harm. Stupidity on this level is simply sickening. Nicholas |
| Its something to do with nVidia Graphix driver. Its essensial so you better not remove it! SuperUser |

| Every time I logged into my computer, the screen would go black, and it would turn off 5 minutes later. Very frustrating. I thought my laptop was done for. Using safe mode, I disabled this from running at start-up and now my computer works. Christina M |
| I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate on a notebook. One day my resources were hogged up (100% cpu usage). I rebooted twice but same problem. Rebooted into safe mode and disabled it at start up, problem seems to be fixed. The file is located in C:\Windows\System 32\igfxpers.exe |
| it has nothing to do with nVidia as many said, its intel integrated graphics, it takes about 9 mb of memory and it controls swithchable video cards, don't remove unless for diagnosis Peroni |
| If you have an Intel Chipset or NVidia video graphics card this is most likely not going to be malicious. However it is always good to check and make sure. Andrew |
| On my notebook running windows 7,it uses 0% % CPU PID(process ID) 1768. it only runs when i am on an external display ,and then it only uses 1-7of my CPU when i am playing high graphics games. It does not slow my computer down any. ininme |
| It calls home and eats up my internet data usage when connected to my wifi hotspot Steve |
| It is related to nvidia Sean |
| not essential. was running on my notebook for 5mths but i disabled it to speed up my startup, that was 6mths ago & all is well. memethecat |

| Just a graphics card no virus Mike |
| On my Gateway All-In One system with touch screen it causes a 15-20 second freeze when returning from a switch user state. Mouse freezes and then unfreezes after a long delay. Disabling it with mscofig stopped this from happening. Larry |
| This process is for Intel's Common User Interface Module for systems using Intel's integrated graphics, such as Intel HD Graphics 2000, 3000, as well as for many of the other chip-set integrated graphics solutions provided by Intel. It poses Absolutely no harm to your system, nor is it resource or cpu intensive. Also, I must say the vast majority of comments left by other users are from completely ignorant people who know little to nothing of which they speak. Those who say it's not from nvidia are half right. It is a technology originaly developed by nvidia and licensed to intel. It's not from nvidia. It's not resource or cpu intensive. It causes no harm. Stupidity on this level is simply sickening. Anyhow here is an excellent article that describes it purpose. [see link] See also: Link dotfusion FX |
| Just updated my desktop motherboard yesterday and it appeared as a new process along with igfxtray and hkcmd from "Intel Corporation" and MalwareBytes and Avast don't have a problem with it running, so who am I to argue. Morris |
| Although this file is not dangerous, it prevents any changes made via Windows Monitor Calibration being persisted from one user session to the next. I disabled it from starting up via msconfig with no ill effects, and monitor calibration changes now survive reboots. Richard |
| On Lenovo laptops running Windows 7 will override your color profile with an uncalibrated profile. You may disable it from Start- Run...- msconfig- Startup tab. For more details see Chuong response at the link provided. See also: Link Lotzy |

| A Virus can have any name... I use core temp to monitor my temps and CPU usage, with task manager open this process disappears and temps and CPU usage goes back to normal as soon as I close task manager temps go up and CPU usage goes to 100% if you are having temp or non-responsive system open task manager to see if it helps and you might get a glimpse of this process before it shuts down. If you open task manager and see this process then you are ok... if you don't see it as a running process just delete it and see if it returns. johnnygeek |
