    recently,I had to manually update a discontinued driver for Intel Centrino (bing bong..NOT). ONLY HJT 1.99.1 picked up the 'queencreek' running service.
    Internet can not offer much advice,as I wish to remove.I know it is Intel related.
    I think it is some quality control report?? BUT,it is related to drivers' data properties .Can I delete?
    Thank you.Sorry to bother.I could find no help.In fact,no distinct info except 2 places.

    'hackg' had the best info:

    USER_ESRV_SVC_QUEENCREEK -- no description
    Intel\Intel Telemetry 2 -- Uploader for the Intel(R) Product Improvement Program.
    The program creates folders on the system on top of that:

    Program Files\Intel\SUR\QUEENCREEK
    Program Files\Intel\Telemetry 2.0
    Program Files\Intel Driver Update Utility
    Program Files (x86)\Intel Driver Update Utility
    Last but not least,(deleting files) installs a new driver semav6msr64.

    Option 1:
    Open Services, find Energy Server Service queencreek and change the Startup type to manual.

    Option 2:
    Uninstall Intel Driver Update Utility.

    aaahhh...my personal computer chatter is SO wrong.Yes,in my mind,it is uninstall.Yet,I blurt out "delete".At times,I have also said,just kill it (that one can really be open ended to some).
    While I am annoying you,it is better to uninstall in safe mode?
    Thank You.

    THANK YOU very much.I did download it.Better than IOBIT.(paid version)On a side note,paid ASC is horrid.Like a perpetual ad machine,redirects to buy more and "better".Find and remove rate is app 65%-70% (ASC,IOBIT MalwareFighter (find rate is abysmal),Uninstaller is halfassed,DriverBooster is waste:want all updates?they redirect to pay more.Use your computer's device manager. Expand all.Right click on each device.You will see update driver.Free to you and you learn.
    Have a Good Day.

    addendum note: installed REVO.Ran 1x,perfect.Second time? warning Malware from Iobit MalwareFighter. Could NOT open Revo desktop file or download file.After much searching,found a trojan. Time of trojan entry was app 50 minutes after I ran Revo the first time. Cleaned computer (everywhere),had to uninstall Revo (I did hide the executable file first LOL). Iobit uninstaller ran just dandy,for what it is worth. Computer seems to be functioning well at the moment. BTW: ran compatibility,program conflicts etc in beginning.All was fine. At 4:00am (est US),I'm thinking computer specialist J.Wick needs to visit some programmers.
    Suggestions,please?I personally feel "you all" are smarter than the *ucktards who sent me the virus.

    If you downloaded Revo Uninstaller from the link I posted, the file is clean.
    It has been downloaded 500,000+ times.
