Unfortunately, years later Microsoft and others continue to use filenames which are small and non-descriptive.<\/p>\n<p>WinPatrol PLUS is a program which allows users to click on a filename and read an description of a file and find out if it\u2019s required. Apple Computer once bragged about long filenames but stick their files with cryptic filename into Windows Startup Programs and have them running in the background.    <\/p>\n<p>One of the ones most commonly requested belongs to QuickTime and tends to stick itself back into the autorun registry frequently. Below is the results from our online Cloud stats.<\/p>\n<p><strong>QTTASK.EXE \u2013 Apple\u2019s QuickTime Player<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>8,425 <big><font size=\"2\">Requests for information on this file.          <br \/><\/font><\/big>47,426 <big><font size=\"2\">Users chose to allow this file to run.          <br \/><\/font><\/big><strong>105,864<\/strong> <big><font size=\"2\">Users decided to prevent this file from running.<\/font><\/big><\/p>\n<p><big><font size=\"2\">Apple\u2019s QuickTime holds the record for the file WinPatrol users want removed. It doesn\u2019t help that Apple keeps trying to put QTTASK.exe back even after it\u2019s removed.
