WMI Provider Host uses up to 30% of my CPU even when I did open.

Original title: consequences of a WMI Provider Host disabling

Hey guys,.

I was wondering what might happen if I disable WMI Provider Host via computer management. He's really starting to irritate me because I just built my computer, and after installing some programs, all of a sudden, WMI Provider Host consumes up to 30% of my CPU even when I did open. I had a little look for any malware but could not find anything, so I really just have to disable the thing but don't want to screw everything up! I'm currently running WIndows 8 but literally update to Windows 8.1 now.

Cheers for any help!

Hello

Thanks for the reply.

Allows to run the virus scan and check if this is useful to fix the problem.

I suggest you to scan your computer with the Microsoft Safety Scanner and check the status of the issue. Microsoft safety scanner would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software. 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. http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

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

  • LR uses 10% cpu even when idle

    I noticed that LR 3.3 consumes 10% cpu all the time, even when he's sitting in the background (and I work in another application and I haven't started any lot)?

    After LR in the foreground (as active application), it consumes less than 5%?

    What he does?

    Is there some settings for switch/reduce background tasks?

    (I already turned off detection for import and automatic backup XMP memorycard)

    IIRC, someone reported similar behavior lately, which has proved to be a plugin problem. Try disabling all plugins in the plugin Manager.

  • WMI provider does not behave correctly when HostingModel on NetworkServiceHost.

    Hello

    On my windows 20012 Server system WMI provider uses a library that performs on the storage devices (maybe this library required privileges).

    Now, there are two cases:

    case 1: when HostingModel is set to LocalSystemHost, the library used by the provider is able to return the number of correctly connected storage devices (probably the library reads some registry to get the number of devices).

    2 cases: when HostingModel is set to NetworkServiceHost  on the same system the library used by the provider returns 0 number of connected devices. However another utility in using the same library returns two devices which is correct.

    Note: I use the administrator account to connect.

    Please respond with your comments as soon as possible.

    Thank you best regards &,.

  • Sharing the host using Vcenter

    I have two machines with ESXi hosts on them, I created two virtual machines on each vsphere client using. Now, I want to share the memory, core and hard drive of these two hosts. Is this possible?

    Please answer as soon as possible

    Thank you.

    You cannot share of CPU or memory, because vSphere works as a failover cluster, rather than a compute cluster. Sharing of disk space can be achieved by using virtual machines (virtual storage facilities) on each host, using the local space of each host and present it as shared network storage device. However, most of these devices requires a minimum of 3 guests. You can run a shared on a single host storage devices, but you would still not any redundancy in the event of a host failure.
