    Service Host is normally legitimate file and it belongs to Windows .

    I suggest update your Anti-Virus software and run a full system scan with it.

    Update your Windows and restart your PC.

    If after the restart problem persist, report it through Feedback Hub app.

    I no longer use it, I am back on Avast Internet Security. It works fine.
