Mainly because they know more than you do.

When a program has no icon of its own, Windows provides a default icon
(do you know the meaning of "default" in this context?), from its (i.e.
Windows's) own supply, which has *no* (i.e., not any) relationship to
the file.


Now you've done it. You'll have to have your headers posted. ;-)


OK, explain this to me: how did you know?

LOL!

It's probably a safe bet to assume that thought never came up for
consideration.

I probably made a mistake, at least in semantics. Instead of "IMO", I
should've used something less likely to attract trolls. But of course
avoiding trolls is not entirely possible.



No you don't make mistakes. Trolls are a nice bunch of people. without them these newsgroups would be dead with full of "Does" talking gibberish.

This post is best read in Rich Text HTML to appreciate the full richness of wonderful text.

"Intel Collaborative Processor Performance Control"
Stayed after removing client connect LTD and running malwarebytes.
so I hope it is something that should be there.


It's apparently a driver that comes with your laptop.
You could go to the laptop makers site and find the
driver. You won't get any details of note. They never
explain the tech side, in driver release notes. That
would be unheard of. Useful, almost.

The "collaborative" implies software interacting with
hardware. Apparently ACPI version 5 standard has some
added feature. The driver in the OS, can talk to an ACPI
object defined by the BIOS, and it is possible for the
OS to ask for the frequency or power of the processor
to be adjusted (for some reason). There are so many of
these power saving or power wasting features, your eyes
glaze over after a while.

If you were curious, copies of the ACPI spec are readily
available. Download version 5, and try and find whatever
"standards named" feature this is, that maps to Intel CPPC.
The doc was around 500 pages at one time, but by now it's
likely to be the size of Tolstoy's War And Peace. You have
to be a glutton for punishment, to even consider downloading
it :-)

Good luck,
Paul
