Windows update Service SVChost ram hog

[GetTheClicker]

Among other small gremlins with my homebuilt rig, a new one has popped up. svchost is running between 1 and 2 gigs of ram which isn't an issue with 32 gigs of ram but it still annoys me. I know that just watching a movie shouldn't use 16% of ram according to the windows gadget meter.

I can simply turn off the service manually for windows update but I would like to know if there's a hotfix or permanent fix whether it be editing the registry, safely, or downloading an update. Keep in mind my operating system, Win7 Ulitmate x64, is not quite legit.

could be dotnet running its crap in the background

browse to
C:/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/ *largest number
find ngen.exe
make a shortcut for it
shortcut properties,
in target add ' executequeueditems' *dont forget the space
save and run
wait for it to finish and run it a few more times til its window dissapeasrs instantly

once complete it will not hog anymore resources while you are doing other tasks

It shouldn't be hogging RAM unless WU service is downloading/unpacking.
Run apps such as GWX Control Panel or IObit Uninstaller and clear all the WU cache out.

It is under C:/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v4.0.30319

So for a shortcut it would look like this:
Target: C:/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v4.0.30319/ngen.exe executequeueditems
Start In: C:/Windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v4.0.30319

And you'll know if dot-NET is compiling its database, cause it will say ".NET Framwork" right in Task Manager as the task name. And before u run NGEN.EXE to have it finish quicker; make sure you force-close any that are already running first.
