    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.

    Looks like everything Microsoft bring out makes your computer work worst it just taking more ram or taxing your hard drive and the sad part is that you being force to take the updates as they call it. I wish companies would drop there prices on higher end computers and laptops so I can afford on that Microsoft and tax with there updates and I wouldn't feel it with my 6gb of ram and a quad core 2ghz processor
