Hi!
I scanned my computer with AVG Antispyware free edition. One of the results that came up as "High" alert was scvhost.exe. I deleted that with all the other results it came up with.

Since then, whenever I reboot my pc it comes up with this message:
"Windows cannot find scvhost.exe", etc.

Any idea on the subject?

Thanx.

Ok friend you are facing a same problem people ask me many times.
Actually you have to understand the terminology of an antivirus softaware . When it shows you high alert never delete the file you should heal or quarantine with your antivirus. If you delete the virus which was not actually a virus befor that it was a file which is attacked by the virus . And it now searched as virus. If you delet it its functioning area stops running the program of which the file was. So do not delet virus heal it with software . It stores file at vault and let u access the program without spreading the virus.

Hi,
Have you tried to restore to the latest restore point?
Have you tried to download this file from internet (please be careful from the source) or to copy it from another computer? (Same windows version...)
This file is used by the OS to load dll, without it, no library can be loaded and therefore nothing will be able to work properly...

Bonjour,
désolé de ne pas parler anglais,
je pense que c' est la réponse au problème posé mais il faudrait traduire pour nos amis anglophones.


scvhost.exe à ne pas confondre avec svchost qui est un fichier de windows valide.

Pour supprimer l' affichage de la page d' erreur concernant scvhost suite à suppression du fichier(désinfection):

Cliquez sur Démarrer > Exécuter.
Tapez regedit
Puis cliquez sur OK.
Accédez aux sous-clés suivantes :

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Ole
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\OLE
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\


Dans le volet de droite, supprimez la valeur :

SVCHOST" = "scvhost.exe"

Quittez l’Editeur du Registre.

All of you here are mis-informed.
There is a Windows OS file SVCHOST.exe found in windows folder that is required for smooth operations.
How ever there is a virus by the name SCVHOST.exe which does things like disabling your system administrator ( CTRL+ALT+DEL) .
I searched this blog to find a fix for the later ( SCVHOST.exe) but all of you guys have discussed about the required windows file.
Pls dont get confused with the nomenclature

Get windows original cd and reinstall it again ...don't choose " repair" , but reinstall..it wll reinstlall on the same directory, same root, then it'll make some corrections to all the missing files , u'll be prompted for that, so just click " yes or ok..;it'll take 20 may b at least 30 minutes .
don't try to download te svchost file cause it's a root process,it's part of the heart services and it's istalled as a package so even if you deleted the file you can't reinstall it manually only the windows installer program can do that properly.
