- nbevans 11y agoAt least I contributed more to this thread than you. I answered the OPs question. This is not part of stock Windows. It is aftermarket crapware installed by the OEM. I apologise I made two mistakes. First I brain faded and wrote IBM.

In case anyone is offended by the word crapware, well sorry but it is a recognised buzzword: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crapware https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crapware
