What is useful or even possible to upgrade to windows 7?Hello
Svchost.exe is a process on the computer that hosts, or contains, other individual services that Windows uses to perform various functions. For example, Windows Defender uses a service that is hosted by a svchost.exe process.
There may be multiple instances of svchost.exe running on your computer, each instance containing different services. One instance of svchost.exe can host a single service for a program, and another instance can host several services related to Windows. You can use Manager tasks to display services running under each instance of svchost.exe.
To view the services that are running under svchost.exe:
(a) open the Manager the tasks by right-clicking on the taskbar and then click Task Manager.
(b) click on process tab.
(c) If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
(d) Hovering mouse on one of the processes will show you a list of all the services.You mentioned that your computer is running slowly. Follow the troubleshooting method specified in the link here.

Create a user profile for children on PC 32-bit W7 with MS Family Safety.
Recently they have complained he "runs slow and internet does not work.
After playing for a little, I realized a ton of processes were running in the background. I couldn't run msconfig to their profile (not administrator) and after some research, I even if the profile has been corrupted.
I created a new profile, but now the same thing is happening a few days later.
See below; multiple copies of the same process are running. This happens within 2 m after the log-in and I only started one program.
I started in safe mode with network and ran Windows defender, Spybot S & D and my virus scanner (all full scans) and turned up nothing malicious. A few cookies tracking in the web cache, but nothing out of the ordinary. I searched for the files wlaacmgr.exe and dplaysvr.exe (b/c they do not appear running in my admin profile) but they were found only in windows OS directories. I understand that they are files of W7 but some maleware recreates.
Many of them are the same files taking up process on the old profile that I deleted.
Any help or suggestion as to why I have multiple copies of large processes running on the machine? As I wrote it, I sign in, seems to be fine for one but 2 minutes a lot of process appear repeatedly and slows down the computer to a crawl.
These two files listed are not at all on my admin profile and the machine works fine in my admin profile. Even with open Photoshop, the CPU is only about 50% under my profile.
Try to check/change the entries in startup with Autoruns from Sysinternals, which should work on the limited account to see its startup items.

in 2012, I bought a package of cs6 - now my computer is running slow and I want to delate everything on it. If I delete the package I bought from adobe, can I download it again?

You can install and activate the perpetual software (purchased) two computers of the same type (mac or pc), as long as you use it on one at a time. (lightroom is the exception because it is a product of multi platform, so it can be installed on the pc and mac platforms)
For deactivation refer:- https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activate-deactivate-products.html
To download please visit:-applications download Creative Suite 6

RECENTLY I bought the subscription for the month, but then canceled (I think?) because I'm frustrated. I've been using bridge and photoshop cs6 for 4 years. I've never understood light room and where it is located. I've dabbled with it and I couldn't find out how to save my images in my workflow of currengt, or how to resize and put a border around my images. How to save for web and as TIFF, as I did for all my files for four years. LR seems to be taking pictures of my Iphoto folder and I don't use that. I tried to cancel the cc of photoshop and lightroom cc and cc bridge but I don't know if I did. I am really confused, and I have work to do. What can I do, do I do, help me! @@ !

HP monthly Diagnostic Tool - Runs slow and eventually hold endless.
The Daiagnostic HP of end of month on a HE - 210Y Pavilion 64 bit Win7 works extremely slow and finally stops at the end of 63%. No other programs are running. Had to cancel because of the stall. No test failure wasn't indication for the part that ended. This is the second consecutive month that has happened. Prior months - the test ran successfully and quickly. What is the solution?
30/04/14 - the monthly diagnostic completed without error, test and it was completed in maybe an hour of time. I did not observe the process - the computer was ON and I completely forgot the test of end of month. When I came back, he had successfully completed in maybe an hour or two. This is in contrast to the experience last month when he never completed and finally stalled after several hours. (The computer worked very well except for a few issues download in Google Chrome using Realplayer).
So, what has been fixed in the meantime? Unknown, expect that Kaspersky Anti-virus I have lead me to leave 'fix' a 'threat '. I admitted to its process. The Feast was due to "Quicktime", and it has been deleted.
Also, I did remove 'Intermediate' which was marked with another download and replace the search Google by Bing - udesired by me. I must be more careful with downloads.
For now - the problem of diagnosis of end of month slow / stalled has been fixed somewhat.

MacBook Pro running slow and crash
Hi, I was faced with a slow MacBook Pro two years ago. It was incredible for the first year and I've been making sure to not save files too heavy on that and have only a handful of applications.
I've just cleaned new (I checked through almost all alone on my files for what I could get rid of) and it of still slow and crashes regularly. It also takes forever to connect. I recently encrypted disc, which seems to have made it is still slower. I use it to edit video and design, but they make crash all the time. He also says that I have 250 GB in apps (that is what takes up the majority of storage), while I only did less 50 GB.
I back upwards on the time Machine and I was wondering if I should wipe and reinstall, but I fear that the encryption could cause me to lose access to the files, and I don't know if I can simply restore my back upwards or if I should reinstall everything manually. Any advice would be welcome! Thank you
