The tb.exe file is deployed into the installer distribution packages of the Encrypted Magic Folders program, which means the tb.exe process is placed in the system upon the installation of the Encrypted Magic Folders software, specifically in an application folder under the Program Files directory of the system partition where the other program files and components of the Encrypted Magic Software were installed. The tb.exe process is activated by some of the background processes of the Encrypted Magic Folders software whenever the user goes to a location in the system where some folders in the directory or sub directory are hidden or protected by the Encrypted Magic Folders application.
