Xperia Companion is a computer tool for easy and safe software updates of your Xperia™ device. Use it to update to the latest software version, back up and restore your device, or to reset your device by clearing the content. You can also browse, sync, transfer, and organize your content, such as multimedia files.

Xperia Companion offers 3 features: The ability to browse files on your smartphone, perform program updates, and something called "software repair", which will allow you to wipe your Xperia phone and perform a clean installation.
