Running processes question - 11/24/06 05:08 PM
Hi, whenever I check the
running processes list I have about 4 or 5 svchost.exe running. Is this all fine or is there something wrong? I only have running on my other PC.

It's normal.

The Svchost.exe file is located in the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder. At startup, Svchost.exe checks the services part of the registry to construct a list of services that it must load. Multiple instances of Svchost.exe can run at the same time. Each Svchost.exe session can contain a grouping of services. Therefore, separate services can run, depending on how and where Svchost.exe is started. This grouping of services permits better control and easier debugging.
