I downloaded and installed the Ninite program for automatic software updates. It said it had installed and updated some programs but I cannot find the Ninite.exe file anywhere on my PC.
Is there a way to remove it? Makes me uneasy to have a supposedly running program that I can't find / locate file location.
Thank you.

Ninite, at least in my experience doesn't install itself unless it's the pro version.
The ninite.exe simply installs the programs you requested but not itself as it were.

Right you are Marc. The simple version must be run each time. I made a copy and placed it on my desktop so I could test out if my other programs which are supposed to keep me updated are doing their work. So far, Ninite only found one un-up-dated program, Mindblower!
