Usually, there is no problem of SVCHOST. A google search would answer your question. Please read the links below that come from a ScanDoo/google search.

Please give the complete location of SVCHOST on your computer.

What problem, as this is a system file used by many services. This assumes that it is actually the svchost.exe file in the correct location for your OS which you haven’t mentioned ?

Most notably the windows update service and since this is close to the Microsoft Patch Tuesday (last week) it could still be trying to update your system, it is on mine with only 6 of 8 complete in 7 days.
