Title: Should I have several instances of svchost running in vista? Post by: Nerf on July 02, 2008, 09:43:02 PM Is this normal? Looking through the task manager I have 14(FOURTEEN!!) svchost.exe's running, wtf?
Title: Re: Should I have several instances of svchost running in vista? Post by: fuser on July 02, 2008, 09:52:20 PM Yep its totally normal. A svchost.exe is spawned for services on windows (some times some are bundled into one.. others spawn their own)
If you want grab process explorer (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx) to take a look at what each svchost.exe is being used by (hover over the svchost.exe or double click and go to the "services" tab). |
