    Lumia 730 ds : background downloading issue

    What are you downloading exactly? In windows phone only the app which is currently in foreground will be executed. If any up is in background it will be stopped. Exeptions are speciall background tasks, provided by some apps. Execution of background task
    could be allowed or blocked in energy saver settings for each app which provides background tasks.



    Please check if the app you are using provides background tasks and check if background tasks are allowed for this application.

    There has to be some background tasks running. Verify that by looking at Battery Saver in Settings. Look at usage and see what background tasks are enabled. I turn off most of mine.

    It's a signed ms file used to run DLLs as long as it's in the correct folder it's can be CPU intensive

    Since CortanaUI would point to audiovisual factors, this would lead to microphone input, speaker output and/or graphics interface. I would then explore these settings and drivers. And maybe correlate the crash time with specific live event.

    If it is just a one-off, I would ignore it.
