What is WCESCOMM.exe?
ActiveSync Connection Manager allows a mobile device to be synchronized with either a desktop PC or a server running a compatible software product including Microsoft Exchange Server. On desktops, ActiveSync synchronizes emails, calendar, contacts and tasks with Microsoft Outlook, along with Internet bookmarks and files. ActiveSync does not support all features of Outlook. For instance, contacts grouped into subfolders are not transferred.
