Anyone have this bug with trustedinstaller after updating? Basically it stays at 100k memory usage permanently until I restart windows 7 again. really annoying.

Gonna have to switch to 10 eventually because microsoft has screwed 7 now.

Windows 7 is working for everyone else so the problem is with your machine. I had the same memory leak several times now and fixing it isn't easy.

Basically what I did was:

Fixed problems eith a faulty .NET Framework installation - no option to repair was available.
Switched to default hosts file (during the fix)
Reset IE completely.
Run an MS Fixit in aggressive mode and rebooted.
Ran some commands to fix and reset Windows Updates components.
Force deleted anything that wouldn't delete.
Force reinstalled Windows Update agent.
Rebooted.
Reconfigured Windows Update settings.
Remove any existing Windows 10 Upgrade updates.
Check for updates (but not download or install them). Hide Windows 10 Upgrade updates.
Download and install the other important updates.
Reboot.
Check again that no Windows 10 Upgrade updates got installed.
One did - so I removed it again.
Reboot.
Check for updates - note: te first time you see svchost (netsvcs) and trusted installer using a fairly high amount of RAM but after the initial file integrity checks are finished normal RAM usage is resumed.

Well it's been said so many times before: Keep regular system image backups going back at least 6 months and problems can be avoided.
