tfswctrl.exe causes a Direct Acces Component crash on XP-Pro startup  link for more info Don Catterson
Installed with Sonic Record Now! CD burning software (might be pre-installed on IBM thinkpad)  link for more info JM
This is caused by the Veritas file 'tfswctrl.exe'. From the Windows desktop click on start- search Go to the ‘All Files or Folders’ option and type in “tfswctrl”. Once Windows has located the file, rename their file type suffix(e.g. tfswctrl.exe to tfswctrl.ex_ or tfswctrl.sys to tfswctrl.sy_). Darlene
Made by Veritas, came pre-installed on my IBM ThinkPad A31, this app frequently crashes when I "un-hibernate" the laptop Scott
It was installed on my Dell computer which includes Sonic CD writer software. DO NOT install Direct CD as well. The system will be unstable because of conflicts because both are loaded at startup. beltwayrider
not much but is a pain when you want to restart or shutdown your computer. Don Jensen
When I shutdown W2000 I get a message telling me that this app is 'not responding' J. Ponte
installed a Plextor PX-16A DVD Burner in my Dell 2400. Every time I insert a DVD to play, the computer "dumps" completely shuts down. When I turn off the tfswctrl, everything works fine. Dave
This program is NOT-essential, but SHOULD NOT be terminated unless causing severe problems John Sousa
It has a unique payload of orbit byte twisters. It can be used to adapt write requests to network requests by a simple switch. Jarn McCloy
Get Direct Access Component error frequently when make referral to or often even when just load DVD disk in DVD rewriter drive. Can read from drive but can't write to it. Dorothy
My 3.2 GHz computer frequently lapses into slow motion, processes everything at a snail's pace, Only solution is to reboot. While the machine is trying to shut down I get the message twfsctrl is not responding. Tom
I believe this changes the POP3 account to 127.0.0.1 in Outlook Express
