savservices.exe running my CPU to capacity

Hi,

As of the last day, savservices.exe (99%) is running my CPU to 100% every time.

This occurs within 5 minutes of startup and even if I stop the process it just starts again at a later time.

I have contacted support, as this is not the first time this has come up in the forums but they have not got back to me yet so I am hoping someone here may be able to assist me.

Details are as follows:

 
Sophos product:  -- 
Sophos Endpoint Security and Control
Sophos product version:  --
  9.5
Operating system:
  --  Windows 7
 

The only thing I can think that I did before this was to run the PC in safe mode, as I am looking for another BSOD issue, and then turn it back on in regular windows mode.


Kind Regards,

Nick

    Is this the only machine running with High Usage in the network, running the same configs?

    If the configs are very intense then it will use a lot more resources.

    With the Sophos Anti-Virus service, if you stop it does the resource usage drop?

    You can try the SophosUpdate service with automatic Delayed start. see if that makes a difference.

    Are you running any programs that use large files, like AutoCad, or Zip files, or do you have a local database program on the machine?

    :)
