Product: Microsoft ActiveSync
Support: Help link Update link Uninstall tool
Company: Microsoft (microsoft.com)
File: rapimgr.exe
Deployed with Microsoft ActiveSync, the RAPI Manager is a background process that integrates your PC with a mobile device that is synchronized. Remote Application Programming Interface (RAPI) is the standard through which your computer executes programs or functions through the mobile device. Without this process running, mobile devices will still sync, they just will not be able to call functions. RAPI was initially developed as a remote procedure call for Pocket PCs, but Microsoft has since migrated it to their mobile platform.

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!

| Rapimgr is associated with ActiveSync. May have an IP address as a placeholder for passthrough internet to a handheld terminal. Needed if you connect handheld devices or phones to your PC, otherwise not needed. Usually needs to be downloaded from Microsoft for it to be on a PC (not sure about Vista).
