www.BlackViper.com: Windows 7 Services 411 - Distributed Link Tracking Client

Distributed Link Tracking Client

Default Description:

Maintains links between NTFS files within a computer or across computers in a network.

Additional Information:

Maintains links with NTFS files within your computer or across a domain. For example, you could make a file on "Computer A." You then create a "short cut" or "link" to that file on "Computer B." If you would move the file on Computer A to a different location, this service would tell Computer B to update its information to allow uninterrupted connectivity. Even though this is rather valuable on a large network, I have not found a use for this service on a home network.

This services state, in normal and safe mode, cannot be modified by a registry patch.
