Windows 10: Win 10 updates and SppExtComObj.Exe (KMS Connection Broker)

Hello helpdesk team, I have a problem, in fact the last three Win updates have given me a real headache.


My current status is that my laptop boots OK and all seems well until ... almost everything comes to a halt. The menu page stops working, I cannot open any folders even Task manager has a problem opening.


But one time it did and I noticed that when SppExtComObj.Exe (KMS Connection Broker) closed everything works well. This problem seems to occur whenever SppExtComObj.Exe (KMS Connection Broker) starts ... and goes when it closes.


I have tried the SFC and DSM commands as administrator but they say all is clear.


Please offer some help ... I am tearing my hair out with this one.


Kind regards,


Chris Wheeler

KMS conection broke

Hi Donald,

SppExtComObj is a legitimate Windows Process, also known as KMS Connection Broker

Do not touch that file, it is a required component of Windows, unless an Anti-virus application is flagging that file as infected, leave that file alone

With all these exe and dll file names, if you Google them you will always find websites reporting them as a virus or malware, when this is rarely the case, they are just trying to sell you some malware application . . .
