It can appear along with svchost error or alone. Generic Host Process error can result in network problems, computer freeze, application issues. It has a lot of reasons and possible solutions in this article I will post some collected from the internet forums, articles as well as some unique fixes. All the knowledge was accumulated in Svchost Fix Wizard that can be downloaded by above link.

However, if you want to take a deeper tour to the world of Generic Host Process error here is 1 main rule:

IF YOU HAVE WINDOWS XP SP2 OR EVEN SP1 IMMEDIATELY INSTALL SERVICE PACK 3. IN 99% OF CASES GENERIC HOST PROCESS ERROR WILL GO AWAY!

Service Pack 3 can be downloaded on the page: Service Pack 3 for XP 32-bit

For those of you who have Service Pack 3 already but have this error below is a set of manual and semi-automatic ways to fix this error. Reasons can be very different thats why try all the methods and reboot so you can see an effect.

1) Registry tweaks:

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters and find “TransportBindName” that will have value \Device\. Double-click on it and remove “\Device\” like in the picture:

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Browser\Parameters and find “IsDomainMaster” that will possibly have value “TRUE” or nothing. Double-click on it and change its value to “FALSE” like in the picture:

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Ole and find “EnableDCOM” that will have value “Y”. Double-click on it and change it to “N” like in the picture:

2) Apply latest Microsoft hotfixes

For 32-bit version of Windows XP:

Update for Windows XP (KB894391)

For 64-bit version of Windows XP:

Update for Windows XP 64-bit Itanium Edition (KB894391)

3) Scan with Antivirus

Error can be caused by malware (like famous mshta.exe executable) you can use your antivirus with latest updates and perform a full scan. Alternatively, you can use Stronghold Antivirus that have 30-days full functional trial:

Download Stronghold Antivirus

Also, you can use free and powerful utility called Combofix that can be found here:

Combofix Download Page

Mention, that “Generic Host Process” and “Svchost” issues can be fixed using small but very effective utility called Svchost Fix Wizard:

xp spooler service

• Process Explorer
• System File Checker
• Command Prompt

But for Windows 7 you can use one more useful utility for analyzing svchost.exe process called Svchost Viewer. You can download and read about it here – it is free tool.

Or you can download Svchost Fix Wizard that will fix your problem in automatic mode. But it is not free:

So the process of determining what service or file makes svchost.exe take a lot of CPU resources is similar to what we did in Windows Vista. You open Process Explorer -> Order process by name by clicking on the word Process in the Processes column. Now you will see all svchost.exe instances one by one in one place. Next look at the instances of svchost.exe that are running and double-click the one with the high CPU usage. Look at the Services tab to find out what services are being hosted by that instance of svchost.

There are some services that have problems with running under Windows 7:

Windows Live Mesh Remote Desktop service – this service can be found on some Windows 7 machines. It is a free web-based file synchronization software by Microsoft that is designed to allow files and folders between two or more computers be in sync with each other on Windows. If you don’t use it but you can see it is running – that is a chance that after disabling it your svchost problem will disappear.

Windows Audio service (Audiosrv)

Of course, you can’t simply disable audio service as this will result serious sound problems. But if you see that this service is the reason of your problem – you can do couple of things to fix it. Go to Device Manager and find your audio device. After double clicking on it and going to driver tab you can choose option either to update driver or to roll back latest changes. This can solve your problem.

If you can’t determine what service is causing the problem or how to deal with this or that service you can perform some useful general actions.

1) Use System File Checker – built in system tool that will find and fix corrupted system files. You can run it from command prompt by typing special command:

sfc /scannow

2) Check your startup items. In most cases you don’t need such applications as Adobe, antiviruses, torrent clients, media software to run on startup. Disabling them will increase load speed and possibly fix svchost problem:

3) And of course one of the essential actions you need to perform is to scan the whole PC with some quality antivirus that will find and remove viruses that can also be a reason of high CPU usage. Here is the list of quality antiviruses:

• Stronghold Antivirus (free full functional trial)
• AVG Free Edition
• Avast (has free version)

If above instructions seem to be complex or you can’t find the reason of the problem use advanced utility Svchost Fix Wizard that was designed to solve problems of such a kind.

You can fix this issue using Svchost Fix Wizard or Registry Cleaner

Real svchost.exe file is located in C:\Windows\system32 folder. If you take a closer look to error message you have it can look like this:

Windows cannot find C:\windows\svchost.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, check the Start button, and then check Search.

Which states that you don’t have file in Windows folder. This error often appear after malware removal that removed svchost.exe virus from Windows folder, while there is still registry entry that tell this file to load on startup. In Hijackthis log this can look like this

F3 – REG:win.ini: load=C:\WINDOWS\svchost.exe

That means that malware created inifile value, mapped to Registry. This can be fixed by Hijackthis but it is strongly recommended to perform antivirus scan after.

Another error can look like this:

Windows cannot find C:\windows\system32\scvhost.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, check the Start button, and then check Search.

If you look carefully you can see that it is sCVhost.exe file but not sVChost.exe that should be. In Hijackthis log this error can be represented by O4 line:

O4 – HKLM\..\Policies\Explorer\Run: [Generic Host Process] C:\WINDOWS\system32\scvhost.exe

It even named the process “Generic Host Process” to make you sure there is nothing suspicious. Actually, virus copied this file to system32 folder and added auto-loading Registry entry. After your standard antivirus or Windows Defender located and removed the file entry was still there saying your PC to load non-existing file which result in this error.

Other known cases are:

Windows cannot find C:\Recycled\SVCHost.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, check the Start button, and then check Search.

This error appears after infecting with Rungbu.b virus that can be removed with True Sword or Malwarebytes Antimalware. To redeem this error you need to go to Registry Editor and locate key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Explorer\Winlogon

On the right side locate entry Shell and change its value from

Explorer.exe C:\Recycled\Svchost.exe

to

Explorer.exe

After restart error should disappear.

One more popular problem states:

Windows cannot find ‘C:\WINDOWS\system32\dxdll\svchost.exe’. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for the file, click the Start button, and then click Search.

Reason of this error is pretty much the same and it can be fixed by Hijackthis or using registry Editor. Just go to Edit -> Find in Registry Editor and type:

dxdll\svchost.exe

Remove entry that will contain C:\WINDOWS\system32\dxdll\svchost.exe or remove line C:\WINDOWS\system32\dxdll\svchost.exe in value that will be found.

This can be fixed. This problem was common some years ago after first Norton 360 was released – in latest versions of Norton antiviruses – it is a rare thing to have this problem. First of all, calm down, this is very likely not a virus or something. It is probably “bug” of older Norton products when it shows you above error. That happens when certain PC configuration makes Symantec application freeze and take the whole CPU and RAM.

You can fix this problem by using program that you can download below.

If you would like to fix this problem manually you should learn the following:

1) Almost all Norton products have the ccsvchst.exe file. It is essential for this file to be installed of these software products since the user interface where the user interacts with the computer is made by this file.
2) This file usually located in The file is located in the C:\Program Files\Common Files directory.
3) Symantec Event Manager and the Norton Internet 2007 Security Suite (or later) actively use this file.

A) Update

Main way to fix this if you want to keep Norton products on your PC is to perform update of the program, databases, modules. You can use instructions here and update your particular product up to latest date:

Norton Updates

or update from inside the program.

B) Disable Auto-Protect on startup

The second method is to fix problem with Auto-Protect loading on startup. Here are short manuals:

Norton AntiVirus 2002/2003/2004

• 1) Start Norton AntiVirus.
• 2) Click Options.
• 3) In the System section, click Auto-Protect.
• 4) In the Auto-Protect section, uncheck “Enable Auto-Protect (recommended).



• 5) Click OK.

Norton AntiVirus 2011

• 1) Start Norton AntiVirus.
• 2) Click More Details in the box at the bottom of the Norton AntiVirus interface.



• 3) Click Yes when you are prompted to disable it.

But if this won’t work the only way is to ask Norton support or remove Norton completely using their removal tools – choose one on this page:

So as in previous case when I start Process Explorer on my PC and sort processes by names I see list of 14 svchost.exe processes with different PIDs and two of them are using more memory and CPU than other 12.

One of them was described in one of the previous articles. Today we take a close on svchost.exe netsvc host group.

As you can see I choose exactly that svchost.exe that you might have problem with:

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

If I go to the threads tab I can see list of alls services that use this svchost.exe process to start themselves, DLL files that contain the core of this services and most important percentage of process resources it is using.

In my case, there is MMCSS service using 0.05 percent of CPU which is absolutely normal and I don’t care about it. However, if MMCSS will take a huge amount of process resources I can turn the service off as it is not really essential (it is responsible for relative prioritization of work for multi task system intended mainly for multimedia applications). In your case you can have some malicious activity service taking 25% or 30% of CPU and you can kill it as well. But make sure it is really third-party and malicious or you can stop some essential process which can end with a system malfunction or freeze. Read about service taking your CPU as much as you can find in Google and if there is no info or it is proven to be malicious you can kill it without problem.

We highly recommend you to use award-winning tool – Svchost Fix Wizard intended to solve various problems with svchost process.

Very often you can see strange thing when

C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe -k LocalSystemNetworkRestricted

using process time and RAM. What is this “LocalSystemNetworkRestricted” by the way? is a service host group that includes several services in it. In standard they are:

• Network Connections Manager
• Program Compatibility Assistant Service
• Superfetch Service Host
• Microsoft Tablet PC Input Service
• Distributed Link Tracking Client
• Remote Desktop Services Device Redirector Service
• Desktop Window Manager
• Windows Diagnostic Infrastructure
• Windows WLAN AutoConfig Service DLL
• Portable Device Enumerator

but after installing different complex applications they can add different third-party services that will “eat” your memory as well. So ho to check what service is using your memory and fix this problem manually? There is a great tool from Sysinternals that is called Process Explorer. You probably have heard about it while searching information about your problem on forums. It looks scary for the beginners but it is really quite simple to use. All you need is to be attentive and careful not to disable essential parts. So here is where you can find download link for Process Explorer:

After running tool, sorting processes by name and going to “s” letter processes here what I see on my PC running Windows 7 32-bit:

As you can see I have 14 svchost.exe processes running (which is absolutely normal as they run under different service host groups) and 2 processes are using more memory then others (but 26 Mb is excellent)/ f I right-click on one of this processes and choose “Properties” I can see that it belongs to LocalSystemNetworkRestricted host group:

If I go to “Services” I can see all services that use this particular process to run. I my list there are only standard services listed but you can have some additional third-party ones listed.

In case this process using more then 100 Mb of your RAM that is a reason to look deeper into services and disable non-essential services. There is some information about each particular service in the bottom of the window. Sometimes, there only standard system services listed (better don’t disable them) but you still have a problem with svchost.exe “eating” your memory. In this case you can watch carefully what service running under this process and improve situation. For example, if you have Audio and Network related services listed – you can try updating drivers for your sound card and network adapter which can help them working properly.

If you are not sure how to do this or how to use this or that tool we recommend you to use Svchost Fix Wizard, which won’t require any special knowledges from a regular user and will help you to redeem the problem.

In case you want to fix it manually continue reading to the very end. You should know what is real svchost crash and what is fake one that was initiated by malicious activity.

So here is the real one:

Here is the fake one:

Fake svchost.exe crash can be result of infecting with Windows Antivirus Pro or Windows Police Pro or any rogue antivirus from this family. It blocks Task Manager and Registry Editor and solution for this problem is simple – remove rogue application. Couple of anti-spyware tools to help:

Malwarebytes Antimalware

Dealing with real svchost crash

In case your problem is not connected to the virus or your error looks like it is shown on the first picture you can go ahead and try to detect the reason. To do this click on “click here” link in the error window:

You will see

szAppName – Faulting application in case of generic host process error it will be svchost.exe
szAppVer – version of svchost.exe file.
szModName – faulting module – shows filename that causes the crash
szModVer – version of problematic file
offset – fault address.

If you will look at szModName you will see particular file causing the problem and find associated service. So for example, if file causing the problem is wzcsvc.dll process associated with this file is Wireless Zero Configuration service. You just need to stop it

and disable it on Windows startup so error will very likely disappear.

If the fault module is wininet.dll then you can fix it by applying special hotfix from Microsoft:

Hotfix for svchost wininet.dll problem

or by manually editing registry:

In Registry Editor:

1) Locate and then click the following key in the registry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Feature Control\FEATURE_KEEP_CACHE_INDEX_OPEN_KB899342

2) On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
3) Type iexplore.exe, and then press ENTER.
4) On the Edit menu, click Modify.
5) Type 1, and then click OK.

Do the same for the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_KEEP_CACHE_INDEX_OPEN_KB899342

I can provide instructions for other files as well, just post your problem in comment section and I will provide a solution.

Svchost.exe process issues can be divided into 3 groups.

High CPU Usage

Process using lots of memory and up to 100% of CPU which means you can hardly use your PC (at least at the time it is using 100%). Of course, this situation is not normal. Mostly this problem was described in this article:

Svchost.exe 100% CPU usage reducing.

However, here are couple of additional tips:

1) Check your system for malware and rootkits. Especially, for rootkits as Tidserv (or TDSS) rootkit is known to be responsible for such problem in some cases. You can use either GMER rootkit scanner or fast Kaspersky TDSSKiller for rootkits and True Sword or Malwarebytes for malware. Perfrom scan and click to remove found objects. Only after making sure spyware is not a reason you can proceed to next step.
2) If you have Service Pack 3 download this file an run it – svchostfix.bat.
If you have Service Pack 2 it is strongly recommended to update to Service Pack 3 or install this update:

WindowsXP-KB927891.exe

Svchost Application Error

Solution for this problem was described in articles:

• Svchost application error memory could not be read
• Svchost application error memory could not be written

Generic Host Process Error

This error can come along with svchost application error but sometimes you just get Generic Host process crash. But that two similar problems and have similar roots, because svchost.exe is generic host process. Solution and investigating of this problems were described here:

You can fix Svchost.exe high CPU usage problem with Svchost Fix Wizard simple tool:

However, here is a list of known issues with svchost.exe taking lots of CPU:

Problem: You are using 3G/GSM internet connection and from time to time you mention that your PC freezes and one thread of svchost.exe is taking a lot of CPU.

Solution: There is a service in Windows that is responsible for such internet connections called “WWAN Autoconfig”

As you see this service is running under svchost.exe process in LocalServiceNoNetwork group. This service has a few dependencies. The first thing to do is to turn off this service and disable its autostart from the windows shown on the picture. If problem will go away you can try to fix this problem by switching to another type of internet connection, submit this problem to Microsoft support, search for newest driver for 3G-modem, update drivers for your network devices in Device Manager.

You can also try System File Checker utility built in Windows – here is instruction – SFC

Malware infection

Another case is when you really have infection that causes high CPU usage. Tool that is very helpful to determine this is called Process Explorer. Here is how infection can look like:

What to do in such case? First, kill this process with Process Explorer so it won’t prevent you from running antivirus. If you are using antivirus already – update it and perform full system scan. If you don’t have or you are not sure you can use standard for Windows with latest updates Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool:

You can run it by going to Start -> Run and typing

mrt

In Windows XP. In Windows Vista or Windows 7 you need to type

mrt

in search box and you will find icon for it:

Run the full scan of Malicious Software Removal Tool and it should find virus that causing your problem and remove it.

Finding Problematic Service

Last method that I will describe there is finding problematic service using Process Explorer and putting a service in its own Svchost thread. So after you started Process Explorer – sort processes by name and you will see several svchost.exe processes in a column. Right-click on each of it one by one by one until you will locate service that uses a lot of processor resources:

In this case you can see that Windows Updates service is causing it. You can try to fix it by resetting Windows Update as described in this article (at the bottom) – Reset Windows Update. But if this doesn’t help or you have problem with another service you can make in running under its own svchost thread.

Creating an own process for particular service.

In command prompt type:

sc config (service name) type= own

For example, for Windows Updates (wuauserv):

sc config wuauserv type= own

There should be space between the ‘=’ sign and ‘own’. You can find list of service abbreviations to use in command prompt here – Services Syntax.

Reverse command will be:

sc config wuauserv type= share

For this commands to complete, you need to reboot your PC. After this you will notice that there is svchost.exe process that contains only Windows Update service running under it.

If you are not sure how to perform above instructions download and run Svchost Fix Wizard.
