  1. What is this creepy "UnistackSvcGroup" with a number of processes and WHY IS IT LOGGED IN...


    Cleaning up and tweaking my window 10 box I stumbled upon MessagingService_44867, and then a number of other services (whose descriptions were uncomfortably vague) with _44867 at the end and all of them are initialized through svchost.exe so I cant remove these random unexplained un requested files/spyware/bloatware/plain old BS.

    • For the MessagingService_44867 the properties provide: C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe -k UnistackSvcGroup


    Now, I was the first kid I knew to have a computer and have been in this game a while. So I am used to this absolutely rational concept which is now alien to modern thinking that *if you BUY something, it is YOURS. If it is yours, it is under YOUR control and you can delete the entire OS if you goddamn want to!* - so this era of enforced suspicious software makes me furious! If I pay for something no one has any right to control what I do. Like a hammer which only permits you to use it with a certain brand of nails would make people very angry but when applied to computing people lie down and accept it for some reason I will never, ever, understand.


    But, my questions are:

    1. What the H*** is UnistackSvcGroup
    2. Why are these services appended with this mysterious number? UID for my computer?
    3. Why the H*** cant I stop or delete these should I, the owner, choose to?
    4. This one is really creepy to me- why do these have an unnamed account and a password unavailable to me. Does some person or entity have a backdoor into my computer? Why does it have a password, seriously, wtf?

    Can I please be told what this is if anyone knows, and how to get rid of this junk as the only info I can find about it involves text messaging (from my laptop? not interested) and other bundled communications. But again- why is there a password for MY communications? Arg - please what is this? Can I make it go away?


    I'm a data analyst and programmer with hardware knowledge so I don't need it simplified, but I do need to understand WHAT these are, DO I need them, if not - HOW to get rid of them, or contact the people who forced their spyware/bloatware on me.


    Thanks guys, sorry for being so bellicose, it has been a frustrating morning trying to clear my compu of the plethora of commercial advertising / data mining / behaviour analysis tools which are so brazenly placed on our hard drives while everyone focuses on their hair in Fortnite while their IRL rights fade away...…..

    Path to executable.

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

    What is this creepy "UnistackSvcGroup" with a number of processes and WHY IS IT LOGGED IN...

    Only write one number to log file and delete old ones?

    Hey,

    I'm trying to have some software read from a .text file a number (GPU Temp) but the software will only the first number in a list (Or the first anything)

    Is there a way to have to log file delete the previous entries and write the new number in it's place without any headers?


    EDIT:

    Sorry I'll try again.

    I have some webcam software that can read a number (or whatever) from a text file and then it displays the number as an overlay.

    See here: http://10.244.193.13:8081/

    I was trying to use GPU-z to do this but as it logs as a list the webcam software can't update properly (also it reads the headings of the file and displays them instead)

    Is there anyway to alter the logging to only output just the number (GPU Temp) and to delete the old numbers so the new value is the only value in the file.
