Hello,
For the past few days, the Windows Search Filter Host process has been using 50% of my CPU. After scanning with Antivir and then Malware Bytes, there was no improvement. Defragmenting the disk did nothing. I also tried to remove this Windows component, but I no longer have access to search in folders... Do you have a solution?
The Windows Troubleshooter is suggesting:
Permissions on the Windows Search data directory
NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Thank you,
Remitch
Configuration: Windows 8
