| Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service/memory hog
As of recent my computer has been real sluggish, so I opened up task manager and found that Windows Media Player network sharing was the source of my problem. It is using over 50% of my 3 gigs of memory. I just recently installed Windows 7 and don't recall this being a problem in the past. I have media player setup to share all of my media over my network, but none of my other devices are on. Is it unknowingly sharing media on a P2P basis? If so how can I correct this feature? Media player is literally crippling my computer with all of it's memory usage. |

| Re: Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service/memory hog
I got some solution to solve the problem by modifying two options to remove the slowdown. I am not computer expert but there is an chance that can hel you to fix Windows Media Player cpu consumption. First I went to the library tab and clicked on Scan files. Then I deleted all files except one indicated D: / My Documents / My Music. There were some paths which were there several times. I think that is the key problem. Otherwise, go in the Performance section and tick the box Use the default buffer. |
