Wired and wireless actually. My motherboard has Atheros ethernet on it, no wireless.

Back to jturk s question. Is this a driver file you downloaded or showing in Programs and Features. If a downloaded file it is safe to delete.If it is showing in Programs and features, leave it alone unless you don t want any internet connectivity.

That would be the best.

Technically you don t need the app, just the driver - so if you re comfortable extracting the driver from. the. exe and manually installing it via device manager, you could remove the app.

However, unless it s causing an issue, it s probably easier overall to simply leave it alone.

Absolutely. If it appears in this list, removing it will also remove the driver.
