What is ats.exe?

ats.exe is an executable file associated with the software Atomic Time Synchronizer or Absolute Time Server, developed by LmhSoft.com and FlexibleSoft. This software is designed to synchronize your computer's clock with the most accurate time available, using the RFC-868 and RFC-2030 LAN time server protocols.

The Atomic Time Synchronizer is beneficial for ensuring that your computer's clock is always accurate. This is particularly useful for systems where precise timekeeping is crucial, such as servers, financial systems, scientific experiments, and more. The software automatically updates the system time at specified intervals, ensuring minimal time drift.

ats.exe is needed to run the Atomic Time Synchronizer software. Without this executable, the software cannot function. It is typically located in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Flexiblesoft\ATS directory.

While ats.exe is not inherently harmful, like any executable, it can potentially be exploited by malicious software. If you notice unusual system behavior associated with ats.exe, it may be infected with a virus or malware. In such cases, it is advisable to remove or quarantine the file and scan your system with a reliable antivirus software.

If you do not require precise time synchronization, or if you use another method or software for this purpose, you may choose to remove ats.exe and the associated software to free up system resources.
