Windows 10: SVChost.exe is consuming the whole internet connection

Dear all,

As you can see in the blow that SVChost is consuming the whole internet connection.
I checked the services in the task manager and found that many services are related to SVChost. I am so confused about it and how to block it.

SVChost is a Windows program that is used to run, "host", various other utilities.

You will have to drill down into the task manager entry to find out what program / file is being run by SVCHost..

Often, the simple, brute force, fix is restart your computer. This will shut down the run away, and often it does not start again.

Dear all,

Why SVChost is consuming my whole connection for about 2 hours in row?

I checked the task manager and found that many services related to SVChost so I am confused about the best way to block it.

Best Regards,

Sam

Can you expand the line is task manager and show what services are involved.?

It is possible you have an uninvited guest. I would run a complete system scan with a product like malwarebytes available at
