When I'm using aspnet_compiler.exe to pre-compile my website, I see a cvtres.exe
process along with csc.exe
. I'm assuming this is part of the .NET compilation process, and would also show when compiling my .NET assemblies. What is cvtres.exe
and what does it do?
The genuine csc.exe file is a legitimate software component of Microsoft . NET Framework signed by Microsoft Corporation. CSC stands for Visual C# [sharp] Command-Line Compiler. Note: The csc.exe can also be the principal executable for Comodo System Cleaner.
The Visual Basic compiler (Vbc.exe) may use 100 percent of the CPU resources when you build a .NET Framework 3.5-based application that has many assemblies and references.
Windows Resource to Object Converter (CvtRes.exe) (from here)
As to what it does, well... I guess that it converts Resources to Objects.
Edit: As Scott says,
to be more specific, it is part of the C++ toolchain to turn resource files (.res) in to compiled objects that can be linked using the linker.
I was looking for something official that explains it, but the best I could find is an old support article that mentions it. Hope it helps!
