    svchost.exe stopped working


    In the Reliability Monitor, I'm getting an "svchost.exe not working" notice almost every day (but not every day). This seems to be occurring during the shutdown process. I have Windows 10 fully updated. I don't see where this error is causing a problem . . . still, I don't like getting error messages and not knowing the reason. Can anybody shed some light on this? I cannot determine what's different on the days the message occurs and when it does not.

    Hello @Tomel,

    SFC And RestoreHealth

    [Q1] Have you run sfc /scannow from an elevated cmd prompt?
    [Q2] If so, were there any errors or violations?
    [Q3] Have you run Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth from an elevated cmd prompt?

    Elevated Command Prompt

    [1] Open an elevated cmd prompt [ Administrative ] by pressing the Win + X keys together and selecting Command Prompt (Admin).
    [2] Type sfc /scannow in the cmd prompt and press <ENTER>.
    [3] Type Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth in the cmd prompt and press <ENTER>.

    When the above has finished processing, COPY & PASTE the output data in the cmd prompt Window into your post . . .

    [4] Right-click on the title bar of the cmd prompt window [ where it says Administrator: Command Prompt ].
    [5] Scroll down to Edit and click Select All.
    [6] Right-click on the title bar again.
    [7] Scroll down to Edit and click Copy.
    [8] Paste the data into your post.

    IMPORTANT

    If SFC finds file errors that it CAN'T repair, the usual fix is to run the SFC and DISM commands up to three time sequentially, or until there are NO errors.

    SFC Error Report

    However, if there are STILL SFC errors, type . . .

    findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log > "%userprofile%\Desktop\SFC_Details.txt"

    . . . into an elevated command prompt and press <ENTER>. This will create a SFC_Details.txt file on the Desktop. COPY & PASTE the information into your post or use a shared link [ One Drive, Drop Box, or Google Drive ].

    I hope this helps!
