Windows 10: svchost.exe application error

I see all sorts of threads on this topic, but different exception codes and locations. My application error was 0x0000420, occurring in the application at location 0x00007FFDBE22F9AC. I keep my virus software current, and ran a full scan just the other night, with no infections. I'm pretty sure this is just a buggy result of the latest Windows 10 Update. But, I want to make sure. Can anyone confirm one way or the other?

RAM Died: svchost error

svchost is part of the OS, it just interacts with other aspects.

 

RAM Died: svchost error

Isnt svchost a service related to programs tho, and not the OS itself?
Like for example, there are multiple svchosts at any one time for multiple programs.

Though i suppose that still suggests the OS is buggered at the core.

 

What does the svchost do?

Lots of Windows services are tied to the SVChost, and /or are listed as SVChost in the process list(s).

Unfortunatley with Vista, there's a lot more dependencies between the services, and thus you'll be FORCED to run more instances of SVChosts; unlike XP where things were more independent and you could disable more features resulting in less SVChost instances. That and XP and Vista are different.

Regardless of your Windows version, you can check out some service slimming guides or goto Black Viper's website and take his advice. Depending on your needs you may be able to cut down the amount of SVChost running, and save some RAM.

XP should never have an SVChost using 50mb. Vista however can.
