The pcmservice.exe process is a part of the PowerCinema program from CyberLink, a media center program that is commonly used for displaying videos. This application comes preinstalled on widely known computers, like the ones from Dell for example. This process starts automatically upon the computer being booted. CyberLink’s PowerCinema Resident Program is found on many laptops, where the developer’s own Organizer and Multimedia Player were created by CyberLink based on CyberLink’s PowerCinema software. This process can be disabled whenever the user does not need them and it does not pose any potential problems for the laptop when done so and the laptop will continue to operate properly. This is considered to be safe by the users and does not indicate any potential hazards upon being terminated, though it is better to not misuse the program inappropriately. This is a running program and though it can be disabled at the user’s desires, it should be cautioned and be used properly in order to enable the process to function optimally.
