cidaemon.exe (Content Index Daemon) – Details

Cidaemon.exe is a process that runs in the background and creates an index of all of the files in your system. When you later perform a file search in windows (find files or folders) the search is performed over the index and so returns much faster than if the search had been performed over the whole file system. If you stop this process you may find that searching for files can take a lot longer to return any results.

cidaemon.exe is flagged as a system process and does not appear to be a security risk. However, removing Content Index Daemon may adversely impact your system.
