Installing VFS on Client Workstation

Figure 2-9 Files Installed in VFS Directory

WinVfs

The WinVfs.exe file opens the client application that displays the graphical user

interface used to create and configure VFS sessions, and monitor file transfer

progress.

VfsService

The VfsService.exe file runs the main VFS Service program which executes the

file transfer sessions created with the WinVfs client application.
VfsService starts upon completion of VFS installation, and continues running in

the background to provide unattended VFS operation. Opening WinVfs auto-

matically starts VfsService, if it isn’t running already.
By default, the service is installed with a Manual startup setting. Optionally,

the startup setting can be changed to Automatic using Windows Services to

ensure that the Service is automatically restarted following a PC/workstation

reboot/restart.
