The process that commonly gets installed when drivers for AMD video cards are updated is known as AMD Accelerated Video Transcoding, with the executable file extension of kdbsync.exe. The process is commonly used for video editing and development through OpenCL. The file is not an integral part of your video card so you can disable it from startup. By default, the file is set to run with system booting. The file is actually just an added feature that was included in software updates for AMD video cards. General disk location of the file is C:\Program Files\AMD AVT\Bin\kdbsync.exe. Common file size is 10,752 bytes. The file does not appear to be a CPU hog, and it also has not been mentioned by users as a form of virus or cloaked malware. The most common problem encountered by users is the file’s failure to launch upon startup because its corresponding .dll file is missing. This is why users have mostly voted to remove the file from the startup tasks.
