Windows 10: UnistackSvcGroup

Hardware: Dell Inspiron 2350, all-in-one, i7 core, 12GB RAM, 500GB SS disk + 2TB HD.


OS: Windows 10, with latest updates as of 03-04-2020.


Windows Push Notifications User Service, and related UnistackSvcGroup services, consume all available memory in most cases, 9+ GB to where the computer is unstable and/or unusable.

I have tried:

1. In Settings, Notifications and Actions, turning off ALL notifications. This has not stopped any applications from sending notifications a separate issue and does not fix the issue of memory over-use.


2. In Task Manager, manually stopping specific services. This works for awhile, then the stopped processes restart automatically and apparently unknown intervals, and the memory user-use problem recurs.


3. Reading articles in this community and on the web about this issue. I have not tried the suggested MSCONFIG and REGEDIT solutions yet. It seems to me that I should not have to perform surgery on the OS to prevent the problem from occurring. There appears to be something structurally wrong with UnistackSvcGroup such that it cannot control its own memory use.


Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello,

I'm running windows 10 Pro all patched out.

I noticed the following service and I don't know what it is.

Service Name: CDPUserSvc_4ec46

Process Name: CDPUserSvc_4ec46

Path to executable.

C:\Windows\system32\svchost.exe -k UnistackSvcGroup

Thoughts?

Why is UnistackSVcGroup service running background ?

what is the purpose of UnistackSvcGroup service "PimIndexMaintenanceSvc_ Some number service ?

Why it can't be disabled ?

Hi Shane,

The svchost.exe is exactly that: a host for other 'services'. So many use that. Don't know anything specific about that -k UnistackSvcGroup parameter but it certainly is not something you should worry about. For more info, try Bing or Google or better yet
MSDN.

Stephen
