Dfsr.exe
Distributed File System Replication
Description
This is the Distributed File System Replication (DFSR) service. It handles the access to a virtual folder where the contents reside transparently on one or more servers. For Windows Vista and 7, the People Near Me networking feature uses this to have all the shared folders see the exact same files.
Dfsr.exe is a 32/64-bit executable for a command line application that has no GUI.
The WinSxS directory holds Windows Side-by-Side DLLs. WinSxS allows multiple versions of the same DLL (code libraries) to exist on the same system. This ensures that every application will get the DLL version they were tested and designed for. The result is improved application and system stability. See details for full directory location.
There are no known security risks in using Dfsr.exe assuming it has not been modified or replaced by virus or malware and it resides in the default directory. This file is installed as part of the Windows operating system.
