As the title says. I’m just curious what’s triggering it. There is no MS Office installed. Happens as soon i start a windows10 pc and it’s “packed” into svchost. Any idea?

“Enhanced Configuration Service (ECS) ECS provides Microsoft the ability to reconfigure Office installations without the need for you to redeploy Office. It’s used to control the gradual rollout of features or updates, while the impact of the rollout is monitored from diagnostic data being collected.”

Given how office/ai is being baked into the OS, its probably something to do with windows updates. Within updates there are advanced options and one of the tickboxes is for other Microsoft products. My guess would be that

That’s how far i got too, maybe it’s the ms-defender?? thingy since i recently uninstalled mwb-antivirus. What bothers me is the svchost. Updates are paused and every checkbox is off, this machine goes online very rarely.
