EagleGet 2.0.4.90 Stable has been released.

EagleGet is a multi-functional downloader that can download any media file. It is released as free software.

EagleGet is software produced in the People's Republic of China.

It is not recommended to use it as it is because it has a habit.

According to me,

The EagleGet installer installs the following programs as services.

egGetSvc
Luminati Net Updater

egGetSvc and Luminati Net Updater are set to run at the same time when the Windows OS starts.

Well, the main subject.

We will share the steps to remove egGetSvc, Luminati Net Updater from Windows services.

If you are using EagleGet casually, personal information may be sent to somewhere by egGetSvc, Luminati Net Updater ...?

Service confirmation

After installing EagleGet, let's start Windows service and set gGetSvc, Luminati Net Updater startup type to "Disabled".

egGetSvc

The substance of egGetSvc is EGMonitor.exe.

By the name, it feels like you're monitoring something ...?

Even if you stop the service, it does not affect the download function of EagleGet, so let's change it to "disable" without hesitation.

Luminati Net Updater

The substance of Luminati Net Updater is net_updater32.exe.

If you read the description, it says "Updater service for Luminati Net".

Even if you stop the service, it does not affect the download function of EagleGet, so let's change it to "disable" without hesitation.

Luminati Net Updater

A program for connecting to network sharing services that are affiliated with EagleGet. I thought that it would be installed only when "Free" was selected during installation, but it was installed in my environment where "ADS" was selected.

How to remove a service

If you perform the steps in the previous section, egGetSvc, Luminati Net Updater will not start.

However,

Since it is still registered in the service, there is a possibility that the setting will be changed when updating, so it is safe to delete it from the Windows service.

To delete, execute [SC delete] using the command prompt started in administrator mode.

> sc delete

Check the service name that you enter after sc delete by starting the Windows service.

Taking the snapshot in the previous section as an example, the string next to "service name" is the service name to be set in "service name (argument)" of the SC command.

It is not a "display name".

[Service name]

egGetSvc

* Start the command prompt in administrator mode.
