Mac High Sierra : background process at boot

reinsley · 02-05-2018, 06:31 AM

Hello,

I see that Calibre for Mac has a background Calibre process at boot.
( High Sierra - Users & Groups | Login Items )
What does this process is for ?
To start the server ? or what else ?

My idea is to remove it as the Calibre server is not used.
Which is more there is a yellow warning triangle that seems to say " it's not uptodate ".
If I have to keep it, how can I update to remove the warning flag ?

TIA,

Best regards

calibre has no background processes that run at boot. So feel free to remove that, whatever it is, since calibre did not put it there.
