It came with the latest software for the Celectron USB Microscope. As per description above, mine is 262,144 & there is an icon in the task bar next to the clock, and if I right-click and select "Exit" the process tsnp2std.exe closes and is gone. It IS important for the operation of my "webcam" (actually microscope) so I certainly wouldn't delete it or consider it even 1% dangerous! Andrew D
Came with my KROSS webcam. System scans do not quarantine it. This is a hardware related file used with cameras or webcams. Sonix is also a maker of this software program. This file will be found in your system startup list. This software is considered safe, and is not virus or spyware related software. Amoeba

Best practices for resolving tsnp2std issues
A clean and tidy computer is the key requirement for avoiding problems with tsnp2std. This means running a scan for malware, cleaning your hard drive using 1cleanmgr and 2sfc /scannow, 3uninstalling programs that you no longer need, checking for Autostart programs (using 4msconfig) and enabling Windows' 5Automatic Update. Always remember to perform periodic backups, or at least to set restore points.
Should you experience an actual problem, try to recall the last thing you did, or the last thing you installed before the problem appeared for the first time. Use the 6resmon command to identify the processes that are causing your problem. Even for serious problems, rather than reinstalling Windows, you are better off repairing of your installation or executing the 7DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth command. This allows you to repair the operating system without losing data.
To get your computer running as fast as it did on day one, you can 8reset your PC. Your personal files will remain intact, but any programs you installed will need to be reinstalled.
