The program mpk.exe can be operated in manual, automatic or aggressive mode. Manual Mode allows you to choose unnecessary popup windows and close all of them at once by pressing the Close Selected Windows button. The Automatic Mode closes popups and advertising windows automatically while the Aggressive Mode closes all new browser windows automatically. However, popups can be temporarily enabled and new browser windows can be opened by pressing the Alt key.
The mpk.exe application has the ability to distinguish between normal, popups and advertising windows. If you get an advertising window that the program mpk.exe does not recognize, you can add it to the Banned Windows list. On the other hand, if you want to avoid closing good popups, you can add its web address or window title to the Allowed Windows list.
