What is Memory Compression.exe?
this recently showed up in my process list, taking up a huge amount of RAM. it now doesn't take up so much memory, but it's still over 100Mb.
i do understand memory compression. what bothers me is -
1) it was never in my process list until about a week ago
2) there is a space in the process title - it is literally "Memory Compression.exe"
3) there is no information about it in my task manager (i use Anvir) - no product name, company, executable file, nothing except that the user is NT Authority System. none of the other processes on the list lack any of this information.
4) i can't find any information about it online, which seems incredibly weird. none of the process definition sites i checked even had an entry for it.
so what is it?
