  Normally, helpsvc.exe shouldn't use all CPU resources, if you use actually help and support and not much even in this case.  It is possible, however, that you have a malware application using the same name.

  The correct helpsvc.exe must be placed in C:\Windows\PCHealth\HelpCtr\Binaries.  The current version should be 5.1.2600.5997 and 727 KB in size.  If your helpsvc.exe is located in another directory or a different size, it is probably malware.  What is the real message of your Norton product?

  There was a problem with helpsvc.exe exhausting the resources of the computer, but that the problem was supposed to have been corrected in Service Pack 2 (and you have sp3, correct?). http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/839017

  If all else fails, you can disable using Windows:

  1. Start > run > services.msc > OK
  2. Scroll down to "Help and Support" and right-click on it and select Properties.
  3. Stop the service.
  4. Set the startup type to "Manual" (service starts when you click Help and Support) or 'off '.
  5. OK your way out.

  OT: svctimesag.

  Hi team,

  In one of our Production Server is a process called "svctimesag.exe" using high CPU. This problem has been detected the day before.

  For immediate solution, we killed the process, but it did not help, then you need to restart our server.

  In the past 24 hours this process has shoot to the top of the CPU twice and you need to restart the server with force.

  Also searched the Internet but found no information. The location of the file on the server is C:\Program Files (x86)\Products\svctimesag\svctimesag.exe

  We organize engine on the server management application. We also opened the case with them to know the process.

• Portege will extinguish after iTunesphotoprocessor.exe gets the CPU to 100% usage

  Hi all

  I am having a problem with my Toshiba Portege and sync with my iPad2.

  I'm syncing large amount of photos to my iPad, when synchronization progess is at the stage of optimization photos iTunes runs two processes iTunesphotoprocessor.exe and the CPU usage is 100%.

  The Toshiba fan then runs at full speed until the immedialtey of the computer turns off.
  It is not a normal shutdown of Windows 7 64-bit. It's an energetic power loss, while the Toshiba is on a/c.

  I can reproduce the same with my iPhone 4.

  I thought I should use a USB hub with an adapter separated instead, unfortunately, there is no difference.

  It is not only synchronize photos that it occurs also when I sync movies and only iTunes.exe running at 100% CPU usage.
  Which brings me to the conclusion that the iPad draws a lot of power of the Toshiba until the laptop is on its knees.

  I use external drives (not USB powered) and can copy a lot of data without any problem.

  Perhaps worth mentioning that I have improved the Toshiba two months ago for Windows 7 64 bit and installed all the 64-bit drivers found here on the forum with the upgrade of the BIOS.

  Any hint is appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  In my opinion this has nothing to do with the power supply or the power adapter plugged.
  The iTunesphotoprocessor.exe belongs to the iTunes software and in my opinion this software highlights the laptop CPU s that cause automatic shutdown!

  This means that it is not a problem of laptop but the Apple software.
  I m not sure if it s a compatibility issue with 64-bit Windows system, but he s certainly an iTunes problem

  So, in my opinion, you need to reinstall this software to see if that would help
  You can uninstall this software from the system and could clean the registry with CCleaner, it helps to clean the registry
  After that and after new restarts, you can try to install a version compatible 64-bit iTunes maybe it helps

• Windows XP I often setup.exe keeping the CPU at 100% for at least a few minutes.

  Running Windows XP, I often setup.exe keeping the CPU at 100% for at least a few minutes... this process can be completed or ignored?

  "Setup.exe" is a generic term used by many applications.  The short answer is 'yes', it's OK to complete the process, but you really need to know what it is and why it continues to run.

  You probably need to download, install, update and run these free malware scanner (not at the same time):
  MalwareBytes AntiMalware
  SUPERAntiSpyware

  If that is not fix things, and assuming that this process begins when you start the computer, download, install, and run Autoruns.  When Autoruns has finished scanning, click the 'Connection' tab and look for the line that contains "setup.exe".  You can just uncheck the box on the left, or remove the item, which will prevent the routine of starting when Windows starts.

  Preferably, however, you should look at the path containing setup.exe where you should be able to deduce what application is trying to set itself up.  You can then take the appropriate measures, which may be simply delete the folder that contains the file.  Note that if you delete the file, you must ALSO remove the line in Autoruns, otherwise you will get a "file not found" error every time Windows starts.

• Svchost.exe (netsvcs) 100% cpu - update of Windows *.256 cause - update forever checks as does Defender.

  Hi, I got 100% usage cpu choking my system Toshiba laptop L300 Vista 32-bit, cause - (netsvcs) svhost.exe in time real trouble was unknown and tried everything has failed. So I did a complete new installation and fully updated to SP2 then the next update and it required me to download the latest update to terminant.256. My system is now unusable with constantly check and update svchost.exe using 100% cpu. All is well until I start to WU and I restore prior to this Windows Update Agent... Also if I close just the update it is still short in the background using 100% cpu by svchost.exe (ntsvcs) until I have manually stop the service.

  I have:

  Disabled Windows Firewall and Avast antivirus.

  I tried all the things as well in safe mode.

  Installed costs.

  Followed the instructions found on the net

  In offline mode, downloaded and installed the latest update which is the same as that.

  Whenever I have restore before this update, it works very well. The download of the update even if I have restore and install only the off-line version, it cripples even with 100% cpu and without end of audit. He made also Defender without end of audit.

  How to fix something that is a solid wall. You cannot uninstall or go around it. If I restore before it, that's all I can ever be updated Vista.

  I admit, I'm going nuts with this thing. I can't be the only one, it is 100% Windows update agent question.

  They have started to issue updates, default update clients cannot manage. Under Vista, install all the missing updates listed in the table above to this page:

• svhost.exe causing 100 cpu

  My computer is running at a snail pace because the svchost.exe uses 100% cpu ALL the time.  It's almost impossible to open and close programs.  I'm only able to use my computer if I stop the process through the Task Manager.  I would like to find a fix for this if possibel so I didn't complete the process each time I want to use the computer. O running all tests antivirus and registery scans I can think.  I thought it must be some kind of virus, but I can't find anything.  Help, please!

  You can determine exactly what causes most of the problems by following the steps below:

  Method 1: Put the computer in safe mode and see if the problem persists:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

  Method 2: Clean boot

  If the problem is not repeated in safe mode, there is probably a startup item or service is causing the problem. Follow the steps on the following link to locate the item or service responsible for the error:

• Firefox will not display on the screen even though with Process Explorer, I see active Firefox.exe but no CPU usage

  I use Firefox as default browser v10.0.2 on Dell XPS8300 Intel Core i5 and Windows 7 Ultimate and Compaq Presario CQ57 IO IO Intel Core i3 and Windows 7 Home. More frequently on the (approximately 90% of attempts) that Dell (50% of attempts) Firefox will not display on the screen when I click the icon. Cannot display other programs when it happens. I expressly say display because I believe that Firefox has started. To work around the problem, I installed Process Explorer on both machines and launch this program first, then click on the Firefox icon. When the problem occurs I see process Firefox.exe in the list of processes; some CPU consumed but, then, no CPU activity. If I click on the Firefox icon, yet another process opens in the list of processes, but with the same answer - some consumed CPU and then no CPU activity. If I have 2 processes running and kill the process from the 1st, the 2nd poster and then everything is normal. If I do not open it treat a 2nd, but kill the 1st process then click the Firefox Firefox is displayed and all then is normal. This problem has occurred since the original on the two new machines installation. I have updated the video drivers on both computers.

  OK, let's see if we can solve this problem and make it work for you!

  First of all, if you start Firefox in safe mode (restart your computer first, then when you open Firefox, hold down the SHIFT key) it starts more reliable? This is usually caused by a defective module. If this does not help, then restart Firefox, go to the Firefox, then add-ons button and disable your extensions one by one until you find the troublemaker.

  Also, try to update to Firefox 11, it has several bug fixes that might make life easier here.

  Just as a few troubleshooting steps base to ensure that we have all the bases covered,
  Run all Windows updates, install all required service packs, etc.

  Update all of your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/.

  Download and install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full scan. http://www.malwarebytes.org/. This check allows that there is no virus on your computer, causing problems. You can uninstall this program after having cleaned the infections.

• Explorer.exe using 50% CPU

  My Vista has suddenly become almost unusable.  Task Manager shows explorer.exe uses 50% of the CPU.  I rebooted a couple of times.  If I use the Task Manager to kill him I can run programs using the application tab.  The computer works well without exploring. But then I don't have a task bar so I hope it's temporary.  I ran the windows malicioussoftwqare removeal tool - who found nothing.  The program is c:\windows\explorer.exe.

  Does anyone know the solution?

  Many times when someone experiences this problem, it may be due to add-ons explore or shell extensions. Consider using Sysinternals Autoruns or ShellExView. Disable Add-ons and non Microsoft shell extensions and verify the behavior.  If he went, reactivate the disabled extensions/add-ons, one at a time and see if you can identify who may be liable.

  Try a clean boot, or boot into safe mode.  The behavior persists?

  You can use Process Explorer from Sysinternals to check the stack of the thread using the most CPU in the explorer.exe process, when you experience the behavior.  When Explorer uses the CPU as you have indicated, double-click the process in Process Explorer and go to the tab of the Threads.  Sort the list of threads by Cycles Delta (descending) and note the thread at the top. Double-click it and discovered its stack. Look for third-party modules (extensions of shell or modules, AV software, etc.) in the stack.  Disable (Autoruns or ShellExView, maybe) / uninstall these components, reboot and see if the behavior is affected.

• After awhile java.exe is the CPU at 100%

  Hello!

  I have a problem with the java.exe in the environment in which I work. In the environment, I have a physical server: Sun Fire X 4100 Server with 2 processors and 16 GB of RAM for control of virtualization. On the system, this is the Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Datacenter and vCenter 5.5.

  For the most part, we are 5 guys in the team who use the vSphere Web GUI. We are connecting to the server using RDP and after some time, we can not connect because the CPU is at 100%. It takes 20-30 minutes to be able to connect. And then 5-10 minutes to be able to click on something. For example, to kill the java.exe file keeps the CPU at 100%. This isn't a good idea because afterwords the Web GUI does not work so we need to restart the server.

  Anyone of you have any idea why this is happening?

  Sorry! I can't see the part about it being the physical server... which version of VC is this?

• TosBtProc.exe using 100% CPU

  I have a Tecra with built-in Bluetooth 9100, running Windows XP SP2 however, everytime I turn on the bluetooth, using the system tray icon the TosBtProc process starts to use 100% of my CPU and pipes of my machine unless I kill the process.

  This problem was happening before that I updated to SP2, I tried upgrading to the latest v3.20.01 Bluetooth Stack but that made no difference.

  As a result, I can't connect my Bluetooth phone to my PC.

  Does anyone have ideas, what is the problem?

  Hello

  It's very strange. I have Tecra M1 and it resembles your T9100. I tried to go wireless and Bluetooth connection, but everything works fine. Can you please try the same thing using FN + F8? Use just the Bluetooth wireless as there is option that allows connections on the same time.

  Hi Anurakta,

  Rundll32.exe is a Windows system file, but it can also be associated with the Whisper B virus.

  I expect not to be almost all of your central unit using this way. I suggest that you run a full scan on your system.

• wifitask.exe causing 100% CPU use

  I use Windows 10 and realized that my computer is very slow. I tried to use flash for a meeting and it was so slow it wouldn't load. I checked Task Manager and noticed that my CPU is at 100% usage. I ended up most processes that were not required to run windows nothing helped, but when I closed wifitask.exe, the CPU would go from 30 to 80%. However, after a short time, wifitask.exe causes somehow himself to run and CPU usage was 100%. What exactly does wifitask.exe do? I can remove it or do I have to reinstall something? I also noticed that svchost.exe and lsass.exe use about 25% CPU each but what I've seen, that's normal? wifitask.exe shows that it only uses about 15%, but it's the only thing that removes the CPU usage when I finish it.

  Any help/suggestions would be appreciated. I have worked on this all night and to meet soon. Thanks in advance.

  Defender (MSE) is by far the cause.  It is using 45 + % CPU and is also the largest process of writing the disk.  Because it is part of the OS, you can not uninstall & re-install so your options are limited.  You can install an app different malware that automatically turn off MSE

  There is evidence (on earlier systems) that restricting directories Defender scans can reduce this effect, but I can't find any reference to win 10.

  If you decide to change applications malware ESET (eset smart security) and AVG seems to work without any problem in 10122
