| Re: 6 running processes of svchost.exe, do they take much of RAM of computer? They (SvcHost) instances are allocated in the Registry. As the Services within them are "Disabled/Stopped" the Svchost entry may no longer be needed. You can't turn off a specific Svchost instance. Changing these entries is an 8.7 on the "Shoot-Yourself-in-the-PC" scale of self-inflicted screw ups, so Image or use ERuNT to backup your Registry if you try to remove SvcHost processes.

But there's nothing unusual about six instances, and there should no suspicion that anything is wrong or needs to be fixed. -- Ken Blake - Microsoft MVP Windows: Shell/User Please reply to the newsgroup |
