Всем привет Будем разбираться с процессом igfxpers.exe — кто такой и откуда взялся. В общем этот процесс относится к видеокартам от компании Intel, то есть к видеочипу. Раньше такой чип был распаян отдельно на материнской плате, а сейчас уже его умудрились засунуть прямо в процессор
Можно ли процесс igfxpers.exe отключить в диспетчере задач? Да, можно. А ничего не будет, глюкать система не начнет? Нет — не начнет. Но почему тогда он висит в диспетчере, если пользы от него ноль? Ну, в диспетчере задач много что может висеть. И не всегда оно нужно. А рассчитано это все на то, что современные процессоры помимо тех программ, которые вам нужны, могут также тянуть на себе кучу хлама.
Вернемся к igfxpers.exe, вот основные обязанности процесса:
- процесс отвечает за установку графических пунктов в меню правого клика по рабочему столу, то есть если вы его отключите в автозагрузке, то потом когда нажмете мышкой по рабочему столу то там возможно не будет ненужных пунктов про Intel графику; разрешение и прочее вы сможете менять как обычно;
- еще в трее может сидеть иконка Intel, там тоже какие-то могут быть функции, которыми ну мало кто пользуется, но тем не менее оно висит там и надеется что когда-то оно принесет вам пользу;
- товарищ igfxpers.exe обычно сидит не один, а с приятелями в виде igfxtray.exe и hkcmd.exe, они тоже не нужны, не несут никакой пользы, поэтому их можно отключить; что еще интересно, что эти процессы такое чувство что есть почти в каждом рабочем офисном компе;
Сама графика от Интела тут не причем, она неплохая как для встройки:
Но как это все отключить? Спокойно, все возможно!
Зажимаем Win + R, пишем туда магическую команду msconfig и жмем энтер:
Откроется не менее магическое окно, где на вклакде Автозагрузка снимаем галочки со всех засранцев, которые относятся к Intel:
Можно ли как-то это по-другому отключить? Да, можно. Вот смотрите как. Открываете диспетчер задач, там на вкладке процессы смотрите где засранцы:
Нажимаете по процессу правой кнопкой и выбираете открыть расположение. Что произойдет? Откроется папка с выделенным файлом, который и есть процесс! Теперь внимание — быстро завершаете в диспетчере процесс, а сам тот файл выделенный переименуйте во что угодно, но чтобы имя изменилось, например лично я просто добавляю символ такой _ и все
Если есть еще какое-то ПО от Интела, которое вы хотите удалить, но хотите чтобы это сделал мастер? Не проблема! Есть такой мастер — к вашим услугам Revo Uninstaller, который умеет и программы удалить и подметать мусор за ними, рекомендую к ознакомлению!
А вдруг это вирус? А что? Может быть и такое, тогда вперед господа, сканируем систему полностью при помощи:
- AdwCleaner — спец в своем деле, утилита целится по рекламным вирусам, из супер возможностей поиск среди служб, расширений браузеров, и еще в некоторых тайных местах, где прячется вирусня; утилита бесплатная и готова к бою;
- HitmanPro — тоже мистер еще тот, но немного иначе работает и ничуть не хуже, находит все, даже там где вроде бы ничего быть не должно, это я имею ввиду кукисы (данные, оставленные сайтами), подозрительные удаляет; ничего больше не могу написать потому что спец есть спец;
- ну и старый добрый
дядядоктор Dr.Web CureIt!, он мастер на все руки, удаляет все вирусы что находит, а найти он может много, вот разработчики говорят что и рекламные вирусы находит, но тут я думаю что AdwCleaner или HitmanPro все же лучше; в себе уже имеет сигнатурные базы; просит об отправке анонимных данных, опасности в этом нет никакой, поверьте;
Ну что ребята, на этом все, надеюсь что я смог дать вам ответ на вопрос что такое igfxpers.exe в диспетчере задач и теперь мне осталось только пожелать вам удачи
На главную!
неизвестные процессы
12.05.2016
If you have ever looked at the processes running on your Windows computer, you might have noticed a process called Igfxpers.exe. What is this process and what does it do? Is it safe or malicious? Should you remove it or keep it? In this blog post, we will answer these questions and more.
What is Igfxpers.exe?
Igfxpers.exe is a process that belongs to Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel. It is responsible for managing the display settings of your Intel graphics card, such as resolution, color depth, brightness, contrast, etc. It also allows you to access the Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel from the system tray.
Igfxpers.exe is usually located in the C:\Windows\System32 folder. The file size can vary depending on the version of your Intel graphics driver. The process is not essential for Windows to run, but it can improve the performance and functionality of your Intel graphics card.
Should you remove igfxpers.exe or keep it?
If igfxpers.exe is a genuine process from Intel Corporation, then you do not need to remove it. It does not consume a lot of CPU or memory resources and it does not affect your system performance. It can also help you adjust your display settings according to your preferences.
However, if you do not use the Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel or if you have another graphics card installed on your computer, then you can disable igfxpers.exe from running at startup. This can free up some system resources and prevent any potential conflicts with other graphics drivers. To disable igfxpers.exe from running at startup, you can follow these steps:
- Press Windows + R keys to open the Run dialog box.
- Type msconfig and click OK to open the System Configuration window.
- Click on the Startup tab and uncheck the box next to igfxpers.exe.
- Click Apply and OK to save the changes.
- Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.
Alternatively, you can use a third-party program like CCleaner to manage your startup programs and disable igfxpers.exe from there.
Is Igfxpers.exe malware?
Igfxpers.exe is a legitimate process that comes from Intel Corporation. It is not a virus or malware. However, some malware can disguise themselves as igfxpers.exe and run in the background. To check if the process is genuine or not, you can right-click on it in the Task Manager and select Properties. Then, look at the file location and the digital signature. If the file location is not C:\Windows\System32 or if the digital signature is not from Intel Corporation, then you might have a fake igfxpers.exe on your computer.
Should you be uncertain as to whether Igfxpers.exe is malicious or a false positive detection, you can submit the affected file to VirusTotal to be scanned with multiple antivirus engines.
If you suspect that Igfxpers.exe is infected with malware, you can follow the below free malware removal guide to clean up your device.

Anyone who plays games or does a lot of video editing can tell you what a good graphics card can do and why it is extremely essential. The integrated GPU is okay, but a dedicated GPU is the way to go if you’re looking for excellent performance.
Regarding dedicated GPUs, the igfxpers.exe file is closely associated with these graphics cards. The igfxpers.exe is software that Intel Graphics uses to maintain the graphics card settings, but is it really necessary? Find out here.
What does the Intel persistence module do?
The persistence module, also known as igfxpers.exe, is an executable file belonging to the Intel Graphics Accelerator Driver for Windows, a driver for Intel HD or NVIDIA graphics cards.
It is designed to speed up everything from games to web browsers, as well as any other application you might use on your computer.
This is achieved by changing how the graphics card handles data to process information faster. You will notice a significant increase in your computer’s overall performance when using GPU-intensive programs.
Since the process was designed to help improve your computer’s performance, you’re more likely to run into this file if you’re using a dedicated GPU.
Although it has been said to improve your GPU’s performance, due to its nature, this program can cause some problems if it isn’t working properly or if it has been infected with malware.
Do I need Igfxpers.exe?
You can find the igfxpers.exe file in the C:\Windows\System32 folder, which implies it is a genuine Windows file. However, not all genuine Windows files must run at all times, especially if they consume system resources.
The only circumstances that may necessitate this file are if you have a lower-end or older graphics card.
Such graphic cards may be worn out or are just not powerful enough hence need a little boost to restore the display resolution after a shutdown, restart, or hibernation.
However, if you’re using a discrete GPU, you won’t need it because it can perform these tasks independently without additional software.
Since this file runs on startup, it can slow your PC boot. As such, disabling it is the only way to improve the boot time.
Another reason could be hackers who have found a way to sneak in a malicious file with a similar name to igfxpers.exe file into your system. In such cases, it should be treated as a virus and removed.
How do I remove Igfxpers.exe from Windows?
1. Remove the program from Startup
- Hit the Windows key, type msconfig in the search bar, and click Open.
- Navigate to the Startup tab, find Intel common User Interface, and uncheck it.
- Click on Apply then OK to save the changes.
2. Scan for viruses
- Press the Windows key, search Windows Security, and click Open.
- Select Virus & threat protection.
- Next, press Quick scan under Current threats.
- If you don’t find any threats, proceed to perform a full scan by clicking on Scan options just below Quick scan.
- Click on Full scan, then Scan now to perform a deep scan of your PC.
- Wait for the process to finish and restart your system.
If you are concerned that Igfxpers.exe may contain malware and needs to be removed, it’s more efficient to scan for malware with strong antivirus software.
The main reasons for using antivirus tools instead of standard threat protection are enhanced security against complex digital threats or a higher detection rate.

3. Run DISM and SFC scans
- Hit the Start Menu icon, type cmd in the search bar, and click Run as administrator.
- Type the following commands and press Enter after each one:
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /Restorehealthsfc /scannow

4. Disable graphics card
- Click the Search icon, type Device Manager in the search bar, and click Open.
- Navigate to Display adapters to expand, right-click on your graphics card and select Disable.
This step should only be used under two circumstances. You have a dedicated graphics driver, and your integrated GPU can withstand your activities. When you disable your dedicated graphics card, your computer will use its integrated graphics processor.
The integrated graphics processor is built into your computer’s motherboard and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. However, modern-day GPUs are strong, so you should be fine if your activities are not GPU-intensive.
Alternatively, if the igfxpers.exe file is consuming too many resources but you do not feel like disabling it, you can upgrade your CPU so that it is powerful enough to handle the tasks. A multi-core processor would be better so that your GPU is not exhausted.

What is igfxpers.exe doing on my computer?
igfxpers.exe belongs to software Intel® Common User Interface and is sometimes used by nVidia graphic cards drivers. It is responsible for enabling display resolution settings to persist when a monitor is disconnected or turned off. Although it might not be essential for desktop computers, many notebook devices might require this process to run on startup. This process can easily be stopped from running on startup from the msconfig and is not essential to Windows 7 or higher operating systems. This file can be usually found in %windir%\system32
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 800×480 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 800×480 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.
Non-system processes like igfxpers.exe originate from software you installed on your system. Since most applications store data on your hard disk and in your system’s registry, it is likely that your computer has suffered fragmentation and accumulated invalid entries which can affect your PC’s performance.
In Windows Task Manager, you can see what CPU, memory, disk and network utilization is causing the Intel Common User Interface Module process. To access the Task Manager, hold down the Ctrl + Shift + Esc keys at the same time. These three buttons are located on the far left of your keyboard.
