What is svchost? When I’m connected to the internet svchost.exe consumes internet data for at least 15 minutes. Why is that happening? How to stop svchost.exe from consuming so much internet data?

2The svchost process is harmless. Why would you stop a system process from consuming data it needs? – Ramhound – 2015-11-17T12:06:34.843
@Ramhound, that is an overgeneralization. There are plenty of legitimate reasons to want to restrict services loaded within an SCVHosts process from accessing the internet, especially on Win10+. – Frank Thomas – 2015-11-17T12:43:26.587
@FrankThomas - We will have to agree to disagree. There is nothing new about the services that run on Windows 10 or the data transmitted by its services. – Ramhound – 2015-11-17T12:47:27.260
