Even if the PC is slowed, conhost.exe starts on 5 times in the Task Manager.

Process of OT:Running.

I noticed that when my PC is idle, conhost.exe starts on 5 times in Manager tasks. This opens also cmd.exe and taskeng.exe with it so when I close conhost.exe, the other 2 farm as well. Norton EAST, Malwarebytes and Microsoft Security Scanner grew nothing and even when processes are running, it does not affect the performance of my PC. So I am looking far a virus/malware and to some kind of error. Any suggestions?

Thank you

I would be guessing that when your computer is 'idle', you have open command (cmd.exe) prompt.

who uses this process to enable drag and drop commands in the console.

If you close conhost.exe as firm guest, or if.

    Original title: Googleupdate.exe * 32

    Windows 7 HP 64 bit.  (sp1)

    Google Update is running in the Task Manager, although I have not Google chrome opened.  My pc is running slowly, my network is slow.  Its bad enough I can't install programs via a disc more (which didn't need internet connection or speed), but to have windows and other services that run in the background continuously, who do not have something productive and I cannot control drives me crazy.    I need to disable or stop the services, tasks, programs that run several times and are not necessary.  Some do not stop little matter what I do or restart even if disabled.   I ran antivirus, malware software software and nothing shows ever.

    As an administrator:

    I disabled (via the services)

    1 Google update service (gupdatem)

    2 Googe Update service (gupdate)

    But I still Googleupdate.exe * 32 running.   I check and these both are disabled.  So is there a service control for programs and services 86 bit 64-bit and 32-bit?  And how to get there?  Or is it in software?

  • Firefox won't work, even if current running in the Task Manager.

    We have about 5 users having Firefox refuses to open. In the task manager the firefox.exe is running. When we run as administrator, it works sometimes, but runs faster. We tried the ESR 38.2 Firefox and that worked for a day or two. I deleted their profiles and installed Firefox fresh with no Add-ons, even a day or two later, it opens. We turned off hardware acceleration, no change. The only thing I can think that I have not done is to clean the registry.

    5 users = all on the same PC?
    Or what with workstations and profiles on a server?

    Any type of configuration customized for when Installer Firefox?

    I was told by a Yahoo tech, which was supposed to come back to me in my locked e-mail account, that it is a virus. I did some checking and found a response (from the forum) who said: if I'm trying to complete the process and get a warning window pop up, it's a legitimate file (I get the window). If I right click on it, nothing comes. Has verified the Virus, malware check, used the scanner Microsoft and even a (Speed up PC) supposed to get rid of this (if it is a virus), all come out clean. Yet, the guy from Yahoo (I called once again, argues that it is a virus. I'm confused, ideas?

    Hello

    Csrss.exe is a Windows file that is stored in the directory c:\windows\system32 which corresponds to the description of the file: "Client Server Runtime process.

    The csrss.exe file included with Microsoft Windows is not spyware, a Trojan or a virus. However, as any file on your computer, it can be damaged by a virus, worm or Trojan. Antivirus programs can detect and clean this file if it has been infected.

    It is not safe to remove csrss.exe processes from the Task Manager. Csrss.exe is a critical system process may not be withdrawn without causing problems with Windows in Task Manager.

  • Windows 8 does not not log on screen, all black dekstop, explorer.exe, disc missing from the Task Manager

    Hey. I am a newbie in this forum. And I really like to make my PC more 'me' even though my parents and brother told me that my PC did not differ from how difficult. But, I still like my PC... ^ ^
    But my PC encountered a problem in my birthday (March 8, ehehe just FYI). Its a terrible birthday gift: (...) Oh, there. Its all started when I accidentally install a skin pack or win 7 in my PC 8 victory. There is nothing wrong with installing proggress except a notification which inform on win 7 Starter has not installed correctly. :( Well, I ignored, first. But after I have it reboot, my dekstop went all black but it still can open the Task Manager. And then I try the system restore. It did not work properly. The only thing made worse. Somehow, my "(le seul compte dans mon PC) DELETED account." In fact, the log on screen consist only of the ease of access and power button with backgorund optomistic. Where are the data of the user, I mean a place where we inserted the password? XC its make me super bad mood. And after some restoration system with various restore points, I restarted my PC in safe mode successfully. Yippie, its worked perfectly in safe mode. I created a new account in safe mode. I thought that my problem more but no. and the bad news is that there is only one user account (a new one) in the journal on the screen! It'll be better I have the new account very well work, but it didn't! The dekstop always all black with no taskbar and it's the same problem as the first.
    I am not really confusing. What should I do? Should I remove a skin pack safe mode? or reinstall win 8 in PC COUNTER? Or do something that you already know the guy?
    Help me. I am so irritated by this problem. In any case, I want to ask one last thing, you prefer something after me or just think it was a charitable organization? Well, I just want to know. And I'll do my best to show my appreciation once you help me. I am so TROUBLED even if today is my birthday! I want a big anniversary with neither party. But its seems no big birthday. Please, help me. His will probably be my MOST BEAUTIFUL GIFT to a person who I know in internet. If you need something detailed about my problem, ask me. I need your response. :") SURE ME MY CRAZY MOM, IF SHE KNEW IF I AM WRONG IN MY PC AGAIN.

    Oh, there. The explorer.exe does not start in normal mode, but it works fine in safe mode. Also, I discovered that the disc is missing from the Task Manager. :) Help?

    Wish you a very happy birthday, Damaris.

    Of course, I can understand the situation you're in right now, and it's a shame. I will be happy to answer your query and try my best to offer my help as a gift for your birthday.

    Let me ask you;

    1. What happened when you tried the system restore?
    2. What was the last time that the computer worked well?
    3. What security software is installed on the computer?
    4. Remember to no particular change in the computer before the show?

    The issue may be due to any dispute of third party software, virus or any system or missing files / corruption. Let's try the methods below and check the status.

    Method 1: Since you are able to start the computer in safe mode without any mistake, I you suggest to start the computer in safe mode and then perform the clean boot to avoid software conflicts.

    Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode (as you are able to start the computer in safe mode with the steps you tried).

    Step 2: Perform the clean boot

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Put your system to the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows

    Note: see 'How do I reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting' to reset the computer starts normally after troubleshooting.

    Method 2: Run Microsoft Safety Scanner

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    Microsoft safety scanner

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Note: Data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

    Method 3: Run the tool File Checker system in case where any system files are missing or corrupted.

    System File Checker is a Windows utility that allows users to find corruptions in Windows system files and restore the damaged files.

    Enter in the right edge of the screen and then click on Search. Or, if you use a mouse, point to the corner bottom right of the screen, then click on Search. Type the command prompt in the Search box, right click invite, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

    At the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

    sfc/scannow

    Note: Not close this command prompt window until the audit is 100% full. The results of the analysis will be posted when this process is completed.

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

  • in the Task Manager, processes is called xxfirefox.exe is - this legitimate?

    Upgrade to Firefox 9, when I look in the Task Manager, the name is XXFIREFOX.exe. Firefox has been hijacked or is the new name for the v4?

    The main Firefox process is always named firefox.exe in Windows 32-bit operating systems.

    I would be very suspicious of a process named XXFIREFOX.exe. My advice is to run a full scan with your anti-virus software, and who does not find a problem if doing a "search > for files and folders" for this executable.

    I'm trying to find out what made the 'unsecurapps.exe' function in the Task Manager? or is linked to?

    If you have spelled the name correctly, then it is very likely to be malicious.

    When a Google search produces no hits or suspicious hits (the case of unsecurapps.exe), the answer usually is that the file in question is focused on the malware.

    What antivirus application do you use? Is current and never expired subscription?

  • Iexplore.exe process still running in the Task Manager

    I was see multiple iexplore.exe processes in the Task Manager when I'm not in IE, so to trouble shoot it I uninstalled IE, run several different scans/squared (which found nothing) and iexplore.exe is still appear in the Task Manager. I guess that it is some sort of virus since I uninstalled IE and it is always showing to run. No idea how to do the trick of it? I am running XP.

    IF IE 8 was present in the control panel > add or remove programs, then when you have uninstalled it from there, you have restored the previous version of Internet Explorer, in other words, IE 7.

    The best way to confirm this is to start IE and then click Help > topic.

    There is malware that disguises itself as iexplore.exe.  If you see iexplore.exe or Iexplore.exe in msconfig or in the Task Manager after Windows startup, but you did manually start Internet Explorer, you probably don't have a problem.
    What antivirus applications you scan with?

    If you haven't already done so, I suggest to do the following:

    Run a scan virus online with the eSet online scanner (may require a download if you are using a version of Internet Explorer)

    Download, install, update and run MalwareBytes AntiMalware (free)

    Download, install, update and run SUPERAntiSpyware

    You can uninstall all the latter after their use, if you wish.

    Hi danielgirard,

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2. do you have a security software on the computer?

    3. it happens with any site that you open it?

    Method 1

    Every new Internet Explorer window that you open will create a new entry iexplorer.exe in the Task Manager.

    I suggest that you scan the computer for malware or virus infections and check if it helps.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    You can also use Microsoft Security databases to scan your computer

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/PC-security/MSE.aspx

    Method 2

    If the above does not help, then perform the clean boot procedure to verify if a third-party program installed on the computer is the origin of the problem.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
