Hi Arthur

Allot of updates last year are highly demanding on disk usage, windows ten is getting a monster in startups every startup. 10-15 min wait until u can get started is a real pain. Linux total time 2 get going 3 min with bootup . Whats more nagging that you have to do more work to get the renamed or renewed installed **** killed from auto running.
I had like 6 windows with that name popup on my screen I closed all except one just to see, and it said it failed, and I was confused on what it was and I thought I had a virus because if you look up anything around the lines of "sedlauncher" on YouTube it pops up with videos on viruses and how to remove them.
Some can be safely killed in task manager or performance monitor. Disabling the tasks otherwise is rather pointless as Windows Update reenables them every week or so. That's why it needs to be dealt with on MS side, but they're the ones behind those spyware, so...
Now, What is the Remedy for it? Can we end those tasks?
