Svchost.exe is a process on your computer that hosts, or contains, other individual services that Windows uses to perform various functions. For example, Windows Defender uses a service that is hosted by a svchost.exe process.

There can be multiple instances of svchost.exe running on your computer, with each instance containing different services. One instance of svchost.exe might host a single service for a program, and another instance might host several services related to Windows. You can use Task Manager to view which services are running under each instance of svchost.exe.

source: microsoft.

although something doesn't seem right if it is 99%

This thread has a few good idea and a possible fix.

I found what seems like a fix for windows 8.1, still cant find one for windows 7 sadly(not a problem for you but i fix computers for money so this could potentially be a problem)

Ok guys so I never had a fresh install of windows on my ssd due to already having windows on my ssd and using that ssd on my new pc so to clear that up i followed some posts saying that something needed to be changed in the reg but it didn't help and now 'ive done a refresh on windows 8.1 and its working fine none of this svchost coming up, also this was showing as a blank process on my taskmanager so i have no idea what could have been making it go crazy.
