    Guys, some troll moderating the support section has hidden this thread. You can't find it anymore using the search engine on the top right corner, and you need to use an outside search engine to find it. So don't expect any support from Microsoft.

    Another perfect example of Microsoft total disregard for user control of their own PC.  Can you believe there are software twits up North who are pulling down 6 figures for dreaming up this kind of crap?!?

    This program serves no legit purpose and, just like CompatTelRunner.exe, is meant to slow your computer down by using large amount of disk data transfer on a loop, sometimes physically damaging SSDs. It's obvious part of Microsoft planned obsolescence plan.

    However, given Microsoft trolls (moderators) locked the other similar threads after conveniently moving them out-of-sight to irrelevant categories, don't expect any solution at all.
