NBHGui.exe, do I need it? by alegator on 04-30-2007 at 10:16 AM

I just upgraded Nero Burning ROM to latest v7.8.5. I noticed after installation that the process NBHGui.exe was added to the background in task manager. I searched the net and found it has to do with a new feature called "Securdisk", which claims to protect written data and make it less prone to degradation. Do I need it really? Or can I safely remove it from the background tasks?

My guess would be it's a shell binding to securdisk functions. If you don't have any securdisk disks, you probably won't be missing anything by killing it. Your CD drive might not support securdisk anyway. You might not want to kill it while you're running Nero, though.

I disabled NBHGui.exe from running in the background and I was bale to burn a DVD with Nero without any problems, so it seems it's not needed.
