  1. How do I stop my PC from draining too much data?


    My PC keeps draining data and I've tried almost everything to stop it. I've turned on a metered connection, I've disabled the background apps, deleted unnecessary apps, and I still do not know why it keeps draining data. I tried to browse with Opera Mini but before I could even try to search I had already lost more than 50MB and this was In a minute or two. I'm really desperate for a solution.

  4. How do I stop my PC from draining too much data?

    Windows 10 PC draining data at an insane rate.

    My PC is draining data at an insane rate, It sucks up 1gb of data in 30 mins while all the tabs are closed and no work is going on.

    Earlier i found it was due to backgroundtaskhost.exe and backgroundtransferhost.exe, so I stopped them and also disabled background data and windows update. I tried removing the above said .exe files but It didn't happened as the windows is claiming them
    as the system files.

    As per netstat network x application the above two .exe files are the reason for heavy drainage of data, but even after i stopped them the problem is not solved. So I afraid that these .exe files are not the only reason for these issue.



    Note : I tried every method mentioned on the net to remove this .exe files but no method worked.

    I use a metered connection and this issue is costing me a lot.

    Please help.

    Note : I am done resetting my PC and scanning it for malware's or viruses.

    I applied every methods prescribed by the various geek blogs for fair usage of data and how to save to save data on Windows 10 PC.
