I have various Roxio programs** on my computer with Windows XP as my

Operating

System. What are they used for? Which other programs/applications do I need

them for?

 

Thank you,

Barry,

 

Two points:

- Did you google for the answer?

- Why would ask this in a "Windows XP General" newsgroup?

 

Roxio support pages:

http://www.roxio.com/enu/support/default.html

 

Google for RoxMediaDB9.exe

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=RoxMediaDB9.exe

Might lead to:

http://www.processlibrary.com/directory?files=RoxMediaDB9.exe

 

Google for RoxWatch9.exe

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=RoxWatch9.exe

Might lead to:

http://www.liutilities.com/products/wintaskspro/processlibrary/roxwatch9/

 

Google for RoxWatchTray9.exe

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=RoxWatchTray9.exe

Might lead to:

http://www.processlibrary.com/directory?files=RoxWatchTray9.exe

 

Good Luck.

How To Ask Questions The Smart Way

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Roxio is generally a CD/DVD writing application. The various programs you're

seeing do various things that are all somehow connected to writing to CD or

DVD disks. No other programs depend on Roxio programs. Why do you ask? The

files you note appear to be background utilities that Roxio loaded to

supposedly make life easier, but which most likely aren't doing you any

good. Automatic updating might be one. Another would support a re-writable

CD or DVD set up to act like a hard drive that you can send files to and

they will automatically be written to the CD or DVD. Not a feature I

recommend using.

 

You can disable all of those startup apps using MSCONFIG.
