You are no doubt reading this article because you are wondering what on earth that dpupdchk.exe process is doing in your Task Manager window… there’s no description and it just keeps coming back. So what is it anyway?
毫无疑问,您阅读这篇文章是因为您想知道dpupdchk.exe进程在“任务管理器”窗口中到底在做什么……没有任何描述,而且它还会不断出现。 那到底是什么呢?
This article is part of our ongoing series explaining various processes found in Task Manager, like svchost.exe, dwm.exe, ctfmon.exe, mDNSResponder.exe, conhost.exe, rundll32.exe, Adobe_Updater.exe, and many others. Don’t know what those services are? Better start reading!

So What Is It Anyway?
那到底是什么?
This process is some type of automatic update checker from Microsoft IntelliPoint (as far as we can tell), but here’s how we actually diagnosed it…
此过程是Microsoft IntelliPoint的某种类型的自动更新检查器(据我们所知),但是这是我们实际诊断出的方式…
First, if you are using Vista you can right-click on the process and choose to Open File Location.
首先,如果您使用的是Vista,则可以右键单击该过程,然后选择“打开文件位置”。
…which will open up the containing folder, so you can drill down into exactly what the file is by looking at the properties. Unfortunately, this process just has zero information in the properties dialog… shame on you, Microsoft!
…这将打开包含文件夹,因此您可以通过查看属性来深入了解文件的确切位置。 不幸的是,此过程在属性对话框中仅包含零信息……真可惜,微软!
Further investigation led me into the registry, and by using the Process Monitor utility from Sysinternals I was able to determine that the process was querying a registry key named “Intellipoint Pro Auto Update”… a clear giveaway that this process has to do with updating of some type.
进一步的调查使我进入了注册表,通过使用Sysinternals的Process Monitor实用程序 ,我能够确定该进程正在查询名为“ Intellipoint Pro Auto Update”的注册表项……这显然与该进程的更新有关一些类型。
Then there’s also the fact that in the start menu is a shortcut using a similar icon that says Check for Updates. It’s one of those special shortcuts that you can’t see the target for… one has to wonder why they bothered to make this so complicated.
还有一个事实,即开始菜单中的快捷方式是使用一个类似图标的“检查更新”。 这是您看不到目标的那些特殊快捷方式之一...人们不得不想知道为什么它们要麻烦才能使它变得如此复杂。
Dear Microsoft: If you are reading this article, perhaps you might leave a comment and shed some light on what it’s really doing. Then you might want to start learning how to document things.
亲爱的微软:如果您正在阅读本文,也许您可能会发表评论并阐明它的实际作用。 然后,您可能想开始学习如何记录事物。
How Do I Get Rid of It?
我如何摆脱它?
Keep in mind that removing pieces of Microsoft software without fully understanding what they are is probably a bad idea and shouldn’t be attempted by anybody under any circumstances ever, even slightly, probably.
请记住,在没有完全了解它们的情况下删除Microsoft软件的部分可能是一个坏主意,任何人在任何情况下都不应尝试,甚至可能尝试这样做。
Now that the disclaimer is out of the way… here’s where we stand: You can take one of two routes to get rid of it:
现在,免责声明已不复存在……这就是我们的立场:您可以采用以下两种方法之一来摆脱它:
- Uninstall IntelliPoint in Control Panel (losing extra mouse functionality) 在控制面板中卸载IntelliPoint(失去额外的鼠标功能)
- Replace the dpupdchk.exe file with a dummy file that does nothing. 将dpupdchk.exe文件替换为不执行任何操作的虚拟文件。
A dummy file, you say? Whatever for?
你说一个虚拟文件? 为了什么?
The problem is that if you delete the dpupdchk.exe file, every single time you open the mouse panel you will get horrible errors. Since we like to avoid horrible errors, I’ve created a dummy executable that does nothing at all, which you can replace the current one with.
问题是,如果删除dpupdchk.exe文件,则每次打开鼠标面板都会出现可怕的错误。 由于我们想避免可怕的错误,因此我创建了一个虚拟可执行文件,该虚拟可执行文件完全不执行任何操作,您可以将其替换为当前可执行文件。
First, browse down to the following folder (adjusting if necessary for your install path).
首先,向下浏览至以下文件夹(根据需要调整安装路径)。
C:\Program Files\Microsoft IntelliPoint
C:\ Program Files \ Microsoft IntelliPoint
Now rename the existing dpupdchk.exe file to something else (using the handy Take Ownership script if necessary to gain access).
现在,将现有的dpupdchk.exe文件重命名为其他文件(如有必要,使用便捷的“获取所有权”脚本来获得访问权限)。
Once you’ve renamed that file, replace it with this fake dpupdchk.exe file created by the fine folks here at How-To Geek. It’s a blank executable that does nothing, but feel free to scan it with at least 74 anti-virus engines if you’d like to make sure.
重命名该文件后,将其替换为由 How-To Geek的优秀人员创建的这个伪造的dpupdchk.exe文件 。 这是一个空白的可执行文件,什么都不做,但是如果您愿意的话,可以使用至少74个防病毒引擎对其进行扫描。
And thus ends the tale of the phantom dpupdchk process. But what about svchost.exe, jusched.exe, or dwm.exe? The journey continues!
从而结束了幻影dpupdchk进程的故事。 但是svchost.exe , jusched.exe或dwm.exe呢? 旅程继续!
