Probably, in the world there is not a single user of Windows operating systems who at least someday would not launch the "Task Manager" to complete some kind of frozen application or to view computer performance. Just sometimes, in the tree of processes currently active, many users pay attention to the presence in the list of a certain service in the form of the executable file conhost.exe. What kind of process "hangs" in the system, no one really understands really, considering it a virus (especially if it is run repeatedly). Indeed, it can be a threat, but not always.
Conhost.exe: what kind of process is observed in the "Task Manager"?
First of all, you need to understand what this process is and the executable file responsible for it.

This is the service conhost.exe. What kind of process happens in the system when you open the consoles, it’s already clear, as well as the fact that the service can turn out to be a malicious element upon repeated start-up. Actually, getting rid of such a virus will not work. You just need to find the best utility for checking and removing threats.
