• Explorer.exe and svchost.exe using too much memory

  I have disabled the automatic updates after the last round of updates, and now, all of a sudden, explorer.exe and svchost.exe use too much memory... enough to interfere with other programs, I try to use.

  Help?

  Windows XP Professional - Svc Pack 3 processor: Intel (r) Pentium (r) D CPU 2.80GHz CPU speed: 2.73 GHz memory: 512 MB

  Why you turn off automatic updates?

  There are between the two options. I just set it to notify. When it is practical, I go to the Microsoft Update slte and use the custom (not Express) option. This gives the user full control of the update of trial.

  You will have a better idea of the cause of the problem using Process Explorer.

  Download Process Explorer.
  For more information about Process Explorer, see here:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/SystemInformation/ProcessExplorer.mspx

  With svchost.exe provide us a list of services using the process. There are number of processes that are using svchost.exe, so we need to know that we provide more targeted assistance. Right click on the process, click on properties and look at the Services tab.

  Solution Explorer. exe has a number of subprocesses. Select the sub-process, click Properties and check the Services tab.

  Have you recently changed all types of starting any service. This often leads to the problem. Users often disable a reflection of service to speed up the system performance. In practice what is done is of one or several programs to malfunction.

  Hope this helps, Gerry Cornell

• My Safari is using too much memory

  I use Safari 9.1.1 on my iMac (OS X 10.9.5)...) Last week, Safari uses too much memory causing my computer to slow down and own memory has automatically free up space.  I use the same sites in multiple windows.  But it will bring my RAM available to a dangerous level of 2 MB...

  Memory will make things worse. The amount of RAM is installed?

• AVG says using too much memory because multiple firefox is open, but I only see one.

  AVG regularly analyzes in the background. Lately he has demonstrated a popup window that says multiple applications of Firefox are running and using too much memory, so I should close some. But I can only see 1. Tried CTRL ALT DEL to see if I could find the answer, but only showed 1 firefox, and that he used more than 28 000. So I think that AVG is correct, but does not know how to see what who or where they are. They DO NOT display in the lower menu on the main screen, so I guess they are in the background. Do not have the virus, and Firefox, regularly updates itself. What should I do to fix?

  Hi cmich80220.
  It is true, that you should only be able to run only one instance of Firefox at the same time. I searched but could not find someone else with a similar problem. If the problem comes back to Firefox running slowly, you can consult this article for troubleshooting:

  Hope that helps.

• How to stop sharing folder Windows Media Player executable because it uses too much CPU?

  How can I disable the network share (wmp.share) because he is constantly using too much CPU? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

  Hello
  • This happens while Windows running media player?
  • What were the changes made before the problem occurred?
  You can view these methods:
  Method 1:
  I recommend you perform the clean boot.

  Configuration of your system in a clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

  See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
  
  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

  Method 2:
  I suggest that you try to reset the media library. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too. Then, follow these steps:

  -Restart the PC.
  -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service . If its status is started , double-click the service, and then click stop .
  -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
  -In this folder, rename the folder Media Player as Old Media Player . If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
  -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt. Check if the problem persists.

• Explorer.exe uses too much CPU

  My explorer.exe uses too much CPU (almost 100%). Then an error message appears-

  Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

  This application has requested the execution to terminate in an unusual way.

  For more information, contact the application support team.
  If I click on OK, or simply close the dialog box explorer.exe ends and restarts. After awhile, it starts to use full CPU again, and the same dialog box appears again. I have installed new software and tried almost every other way, this forum as restart explorer.exe etc...

  Say hello to new parthcool.

  It is a normal behavior of a browser like Chrome or Firefox.  You run several tabs in Chrome?  Chrome treats each tab as a separate instance of the browser and for this purpose a separate process.  It is a good feature because it means that a hanging web page will not (usually) bring down the browser everything.  However, this means that Chrome uses a lot of RAM.

  Using intensive plugins memory within these tabs, like Adobe Flash, will greatly increase the amount of memory used.

  Here is a screencap of my own memory used within Chrome.  I did open Chrome before that and I currently have seven tabs.  This represents about 400 MB with pages containing the text for most.

  

  Unfortunately, because this is a consequence of the features of the browser itself, there are only a few options to solve the problem.  You can try to minimize the amount of memory that Chrome uses by following the instructions in this article.

  Your second option is to upgrade your laptop to include more memory.  You also extend the usefulness of your laptop.  If you want to go this route, I need your product number to locate the appropriate parts and information.  Follow this document to locate the product number.

  Finally, and this is probably the most effective solution, is to use the Ready Boost of the window function.  Ready Boost allows you to use Flash memory, such as a USB key, as secondary memory for your computer.  Here's a great thread in which explains how to use Ready Boost.

  I hope you find this useful parthcool; have a great day!

• Svchost.exe file LocalSystemNetworkRestricted using too much RAM

  The file svchost.exe (LocalSystemNetworkRestricted) uses too much RAM, almost 1/2 of it.  There are also several svchost.exe files (no limit) and the indexer uses a lot of RAM too. I have already associated the indexer return. I suspect that it is the cause of my favorite right-click with windows Explorer.  I have 4 GB of RAM, small basic programs, file clean constantly and the computer is still slow.  How can I fix it?  Test/scan etc. ?  HELP.............................
