Adobe Drive File System Driver is the service name of the process adfs.sys, which is a driver file type, and a component of the program Adobe Drive, especially version CS4, which is created by Adobe Systems Incorporated. Adobe Drive is a type of software that allows a user to access remote assets, through the integration of a digital asset management or DAM system with the different programs bundled in Adobe Creative Suite, which is related to arts and music applications. This works through the usage of the file browser of the operating system, or using the Adobe Bridge, or from the options of CS products, such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InCopy, and Adobe InDesign, which are integrated with Adobe Driver. Because it can enable a user to access various programs, Adobe Drive File System Driver or adfs.sys is essentially a vital component of the software Adobe Driver. In addition, this type of file is digitally singed by Adobe System Incorporated (VeriSign Time Stamping Services Signer – G2), which implies that it is recommended to keep it stored and running in the background of the computer system.
