Svchost.exe is a generic host process name for services that run from dynamic-link libraries (DLLs) The Svchost.exe file is located in the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder At startup, Svchost.exe checks the services portion of the registry to construct a list of services that it needs to load Multiple instances of Svchost.exe can run at the same time Each Svchost.exe session can contain a grouping of services, so that separate services can run, depending on how and where Svchost.exe is started This allows for better control and easier debugging

I would suggest that you reinstall your windows.
