Catalog search terms MobiDrive
Recorded role: MobiDrive syncs files and documents between your local computer and MobiSystems cloud storage.
What you need to know
Feex's process catalog associates this filename with MobiDrive.
Check the running file before relying on the catalog identification.
- Does this name prove the file is safe?
- No. Verify the running file, its digital signature, publisher and behavior. The name alone is not enough.
A filename alone cannot establish that a running file is safe. Check the full executable path and digital signature, confirm the signer against the publisher, and investigate unexpected behavior with Windows Security or vendor guidance. A familiar folder or a valid signature alone is not a guarantee.

Recorded role and behavior
MobiDrive syncs files and documents between your local computer and MobiSystems cloud storage. It runs to monitor folders for updates and automatically upload or download changes. Activity typically peaks during active file transfers.
Inspect the running instance
In Windows PowerShell, this read-only query lists matching process IDs, creation times and executable paths on this PC.
Get-CimInstance -ClassName Win32_Process | Where-Object { $_.Name -eq 'mobidrive.exe' } | Select-Object ProcessId, ParentProcessId, CreationDate, Name, ExecutablePath | Format-List
No result or an inaccessible path is inconclusive. Protected processes may restrict access, and process IDs can be reused. Keep personal paths local.
Use the file-identity guide to compare signatures and product metadata. A filename alone cannot establish safety.
Identify the actual running file
A filename alone cannot establish safety. Compare the actual path, product metadata and digital signature with the software you installed.
Investigate a problem safely
Compare repeated observations for the same PID while the symptom occurs. A single CPU peak or memory reading is not a diagnosis.
Check the installed product version and update status. Use its official update or repair procedure; avoid interrupting an active installation.
Evidence and corrections
The role and publisher are catalog associations. The references explain file checks, not the product association or your file's safety.
For corrections, send the article URL and public product documentation through Feex contact. Keep personal paths and credentials private.
