The phibtn.exe process is an executable component file included in the program files, system drivers and modular resource components that are required by the firmware and driver software resources of certain Philipps digital cameras. The phibtn.exe process is bundled with the firmware and driver software component distributions of these supported Philipps digital cameras, and the phibtn.exe process is installed in the system alongside other component files and resource modules of the associated Philipps firmware and driver software components. The phibtn.exe process is specifically implemented into the Snapshot and Launch Button Application module of these Philipps firmware and driver software distributions. This means the firmware and driver software components of compatible Philipps digital cameras activate the phibtn.exe process among other program files, in order to load the Snapshot and Launch Button Application module unto the system.
