    MsMpEng.exe


    So my computer went whack and the last thing I saw was MsMpEng.exe which took 80% OF all my memory. I had to shut off my computer and restart it. When I get back on I instantly go back to task manager to see MsMpEng.exe show up and a second later disappear. With further research I see nothing saying that it does this whenever you are in task manager. Is this normal?

    :)

    How to "set affinity" for msmpeng when getting "access is denied"

    Hi,

    I'm unable to set or change process affinity for msmpeng (Windows Security Virus & threat protection). I'm logged-in with admin privileges. System is Windows 10 Pro 64bit. Version 2004 (OS Build 19041.928).

    Does anyone know the steps to follow to achieve this? Thanks!
