wow64-wcescpxy.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like wow64-wcescpxy.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like ceappmgr.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center for Windows Vista (64-bit)) could share the same wow64-wcescpxy.dll file, saving valuable memory allocation, therefore making your computer run more efficiently.
Unfortunately, what makes DLL files so convenient and efficient, also makes them extremely vulnerable to problems.
