  • I've also noticed a lot of extra CPU crunching on my Windows 7 EEEPc, I'll be curious to see if anyone has any good responses.

  • This happens a lot on Windows 7, with random services. On one computer the Windows Update service started doing this. On another it was something else that I can't remember the name of. It seems to happen with any service, and once it starts happening the only "solution" is to disable the affected service. The actual service that it affects doesn't seem to have any relevance to the problem. Commented Dec 15, 2017 at 7:49
