  1. Unable to use the internet for more that a minute at times thanks to Svchost


    I am at my wits end , for the past 3 or so months I haven't been able to effectively use the internet in any shape or form on my PC . I thought I managed to somehow fix it with a solution found here and not from an "official" answer but the problem . Sometimes I go through a few hours fine , and sometimes like today , during a 25 minute video I've had 8 cuts before reaching half of it.

    Anytime I connect to anything , be it google , office ,discord or my games , at some point , at random there will be svchostDNS client + svchost DHCPand sometimes "system" that will start and just ...download something , I don't know what it is , where it goes and there is no way to stop it. On top of that the store doesn't work , but hey that's a given from microsoft, and can't find a solution either,so bonus points for whoever fixes that !

    So far to try and fix this i've tried, by searching oh so far every combination of words up to page 8 of google searches

    -editing the registry to force DNS client to stop

    -metered connection

    -disbaling updates

    -disabling bits

    -disbaling anything related to the background download of updates

    -reinstalling drivers

    -"fixing" windows 10 with the ISO

    -swearing at it a few times

    -flushing the DNS X 5

    -using this command: ipconfig /flushdns && ipconfig /release && Ipconfig /registerdns && ipconfig /renew

    -disabling DNS , reseting connections ,rebooting then reconecting and starting DNS againwhich worked for about 2 weeks

    -Running the troubleshooter on everything and anything , as well as when the issue happenssaid troubleshooter still insists the store works like a charm


    I know DNS cache is a normal service on windows 10 yada yada , but is it supposed to render the machine unusable ? never had any issue like this on my old windows 7 and XP rigs


    os: Windows 10 Home 64bit and up to date as of today

    thank you for reading , maybe by posting here i'll get a concrete answer.

    :)

    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.
