Process name: Image Icon

A program installed with Iomega zip drives, this application runs as a background process and detects what type of Iomega drive has been connected to your machine. It displays an icon that matches the corresponding device type. Overtaken by thumb drives in the portable storage world, zip drives are largely irrelevant now. Founded in 1983, Iomega is now known as LenovoEMC.

| imgicon.exe is a process which is installed alongside Iomega Zip Drives. The process will display icons which correspond to the individual zip drive's make and model allowing easy indentification. This is a non-essential process. Disabling or enabling this is down to user preference. See also: Link HalfTrip | |
