How did you identify 'svchost.exe', a 'Local service' was run by Ashampoo?

haha svchost.exe is windows firewall, not Ashampoo. Since i did a review on ashampoo and windows firewall together, i added them both since it was a combo.

Exactly, I know svchost.exe belongs to Windows, that why I asked.

Don't forget multiple Windows Services will use the same process, check the PID from Task Manager. I calculated a difference of 1,000K of RAM (Private Working Set) between disabling and enabling the WF service, but usage is not noticeable at all.

Windows Firewall is an integrated part of Windows, any RAM or CPU usage would be considered negligible. IMO.
