The vsnp2std.exe file refers to a program called the CameraMonitor Application, which is a digital camera driver and created by Sonix. CameraMonitor Application, which is executed by the file process vsnp2std.exe as well as other essential processes, detects a digital camera that is connected to the computer. Once the program is installed, the vsnp2std.exe file is automatically downloaded on the system too, is installed in the folder C:\Program Files, or sometimes in C:\Windows, and is registered with a run identifier known as “snp2std”, along with an execution command called “C:\Windows\vsnp2std.exe” in a particular Windows registry, which is the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run registry. Take not that run keys are the registry keys during startup, and they automatically execute a program everytime the user logs on into the Windows or the computer, and that is what the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run registry key does for the file vsnp2std.exe to launch and the whole CameraMonitor Application program to work.
