This issue may be due to application conflicts.

Excessive Number of Processes

Hi.

I understand that there have been several threads that deal with this subject but none that I've seen help.

My laptop (specifically on my account) has become very slow, mainly in booting up. I have attempted to do all the normal things that people suggest to speed it up, but nothing seems to work. However, that's not necessarily what this thread is about. (Although, if anyone has any suggestions on this, then please let me know.) My question is, why are there so many processes running (or sometimes 'suspended') in the process list that (I think) shouldn't be there, such as 'Calculator', 'Feeds', 'Film & TV', Adobe updater and Macrium Reflect (I have these two installed, but I can't seem to prevent them from loading), Skype (this has never been used), 'Photos', 'PowerDVD RC Service' (this, I understand, is a Levono product, but again I can't stop it from loading), (loads of runtime brokers), and 'Your Phone'. None of these has been run up by me. There's a lot here (and more) that I don't understand why they are. None of them seem to be taking a significant amount of CPU or Disk use, but I can find no way to stop any of them loading. Most (if not all) of these processes are also on other computers of mine - including a virtual machine that, again, has significantly slowed in my account, in the past few months.

Has anyone got any ideas.

Again, the speed of the start up is not the issue of this thread, although pointers to various other ways to improve this would be appreciated.

Matt
