svchost.exe (netsvcs) using DataStore.edb
My PC seems to access DataStore.edb a lot, bringing my hard drive to a crawl for minutes at a time. It happens when I first boot up, and on and off as I use it throughout the day. What is triggering this to be accessed? Is there anything I can do to minimize this file being accessed so often? (no viruses - I already scanned for viruses).
I already put the datastore files on my Avast exclusion list, as I've read that antivirus scanning those files can tie up the system.
I also just installed optional Windows Update KB3050265 as I read it fixes a major issue with Windows Update tying up system resources.
Is it correct that this file is tied into the update service? if so, would it make sense to disable the Windows update service and only manually enable it just to update my PC when needed rather than leaving it on?
