So I posted posts about this for a while now last 3 months. And it only happned when I used Google Chrome. If you don't know what "it" is. It's basically this thing that happens when I use google chrome. The svchost.exe spikes up as high as 500,000k , and just know I just uninstalled google chrome and now using good ol maxthon browser. And it seems like this "it" has crawled from Google Chrome to this browser too when I use it. And I would do a format but this guys charges me too much for it. And I would do a clean install of windows but when I put in the CD key at the windows website it would just say Error. So yeah. I cri evertime pls help.

Did you go to its target folder? Some viruses make folders that are the same name as systems one to hide themselves. Might be a virus.

And also of you do a fresh windows install you can download a windows iso online and then find the computers activation code in the files to reactivate it. I don't remember where it is but I know it can be found.

Dude my father bought this PC and a windows 7 ultimate key. But it is downloaded on the pc as a 32bit. Are windows made specifically for 32 bit or 64bit or can they be used for both.

You don't need a code as the license is linked to your hardware.

 

But it might be a good idea to check for malware.

 

Also, the system might just keep things in RAM because it's not needed by other processes, there's nothing wrong with that.

Does you mum know you're here?

Well if you do a factor reset from Windows then no. But if you were to say boot it from a usb or burn it to a cd then yes. But wiping your pc should be the last resort.

I would run a Antivirus first before taking that action. My suggestion would be either Norton or mcafee as they both have free trials.

You don't have to when you do a clean install.

Well the key can't be fake if windows isn't constantly promoting you to activate it. And also if you factory reset your pc it won't as for it's activation key.

Well that's good but if I were you as I stated before run an antivirus software to rule that out.

I tried using AVAST ANTIVIRUS BUT IT WOULD TAKE SO LONG. I DONT EVEN HAVE THQAT MUCH FILES ON MY PC. Excpt for things that were preinstalled for windows I guess.

Don't use avast. Download Norton or mcafee and use the trial. And it takes so long because it's scanning everything on your pc, not just user files.
