hello. I have a reg value in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversion\Run that will not go away. it is a value that is looking for:

c:\wtsrv\system32\hpfsched.exe

I delete it and it comes back. it is annoying to the citrix desktop users because a message pops up at each logon. I can delete it, it will then be gone for the next logon but then comes back. There is no other trace of this HP software anywhere on the server.
I know this may be a terminal server thing versus metaframe

any ideas?

Thanks
 
This is what I found :

HPFSCHED.EXE is a background task which is installed by the drivers of some HP DeskJet printers (e.g. 660C, 670C, 680C, 690C, 720C). Its sole purpose is to remind you from time to time to clean the cartridges in your DeskJet so as to keep the print quality high. Most end-users find these popups extremely irritating and in that respect Epson have found a better compromise by implementing the cleaning of cartridges as an automatic hardware feature which kicks in at specific intervals of usage, as well as being something you can start manually.

Recommendation :
Disable or delete with Startup Manager.

Does it make sense to you?
