Provides the endpoint mapper and other miscellaneous RPC services. Allows processes to communicate internally and across the network with each other. Many Windows operating system procedures depend on the RPC service. The Remote Procedure Call (RPC) system service is an interprocess communication (IPC) mechanism that enables data exchange and invocation of functionality that reside in a different process. The different process can be on the same computer, on the LAN, or in a remote location, and can be accessed over a WAN connection or over a VPN connection. The RPC service serves as the RPC endpoint mapper and Component Object Model (COM) Service Control Manager. Many services depend on the RPC service to start successfully. | ||
