Hpqgalry.exe is (possibly) associated with the Microsoft .NET Framework. I discerned this after viewing the "hpqgalry.exe.config" file in the same folder. I was instructed that the .NET Framework was needed for my HP Officejet 7210xi All-In-One to operate correctly. After noticing in Win XP Task Manager that hpqgalry.exe uses 8+ MB of memory and 15+ MB of virtual memory I renamed hpqgalry.exe to prevent it from startng at boot up. I was unable to find the startup command in the Registry.

A bug with HP imagezone that HP refuses to fix. Just get rid of IZ and never buy another HP all in one or printer . Might help if HP support even had a clue!

hpqgalry.exe is simply a process that certain Hewlett Packard printers (e.g. All-in-one series) run when you use their Image Zone. HP makes it run at startup by placing it in your startup folder. There is absolutely no need to run it & to have the Image Zone icon constantly running in your systray (old terminology). It would be as if MS Word put an icon in the systray & was running all the time, even though you weren't using it. It will come up any time you start the Image Zone & then go away when you shut Image Zone down.
