Hi all,

While using autoruns I noticed a missing file entry for adobe type manager, I see that it is used for font management on adobe, but I rarely care for fonts so I don't see this as much as an issue.

I see solutions online to fix it but I don't think it's worth the effort in case I break other things by accident.

I can't seem to delete it for some reason, should I just leave it alone on startup if it's not important or if this is a common issue?

Yes, it's "normal". Since it is no longer needed, the easiest solution is to simply leave it alone.
