Why is there 11 Host Process For Windows Services active in the task manager? I don't see any when I don't have the "show process from all users" unchecked, but I see them when it is. How do I fix this, or is it normal?

svchost.exe is used by the systems files so technically you are not the user who has activated them. As when that check box is checked it will show every process that is running on the PC, but when it is unchecked it will only show the ones that have are being used by you.

If you look under the username tab in Task manager most processes will have your PC's username under it, but with svchost.exe it will usually have SYSTEM, NETWORK SERVICE or LOCAL SERVICE. These are just programs that make your PC run.




TL;DR: Yes it's normal, just leave them there.
