vshare.386 is a system process that enables the sharing of files and application data (such as through the OLE standard) in Windows 3.1. This process is not needed on any versions of Windows from Windows 95 onward. If you are running Windows 3.x you probably should not terminate this process, but it may be time to consider an upgrade. :) 

If you want a detailed security rating about your vshare.386 (and all other running background processes) read the following user opinions, and download the free trial version of Security Task Manager.

Note: Any malware can be named anything - so you should check where the files of the running processes are located on your disk. If a "non-Microsoft" .exe file is located in the C:\Windows or C:\Windows\System32 folder, then there is a high risk for a virus, spyware, trojan or worm infection! Check it out!

This is accomplished by loading VSHARE.386 in the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file or by loading SHARE.EXE in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.  See also: Link   Henry upper memory manager from old DOS days for dBase 3.0 etc   Doug If you know more about vshare.386, share your knowledge and help other users.
