So is this normal for Superfetch to be running this high? Do I need to do anything?
Hi all. I have a very similar problem.
My laptop resumes slowly from sleep mode. I don't notice it but everytime I do a performance evaluation I get this message "some drivers are interfering with resume from sleep mode".
tried updates, troubleshooting and find solution online options to no avail.
I have googled this problem driver- WUDFr.sys and it doesn't look good. Says it's a rootkit.
MSE doesn't detect it and i have the latest updates.I have no other security software installed because I take precautions.
I have attached a snapshot of what i feel is relevant.
Here's a link that says the wudfrd.sys is a normal process in windows.

sam ... go into programs and features and Uninstall gPhotoShow Toolbar Helper
This is adware.

I had this problem with my windows 7.
I found this happens because of a service called 'SuperFetch'
To free around 100MB RAM, goto
Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services >
Double click on Superfetch
Click 'Stop' button, Choose Startup type as 'Disabled' and press 'Ok'
Now the memory taken by the service dropped to 8MB from 91MB Superfetch service didn't do any good for my system performance :P
So I'm confused. Should you stop Superfetch or not? If it decreases response time then it would be good to remove it, but how does it mess up the system?I second this. Superfetch DOES decrease response time.... as long as you have adequate memory in your system leave it alone.
He meant turning off Superfetch will decrease response time, decrease performance. Superfetch pre-emptively tries to guess what your computer is going todo next and pre-load it into RAM which is a thousand times faster then your HDD. If you turn Superfetch off, EVERYTHING has to load from the slow HDD when you need it.
