I've been diving into some performance issues on my Windows machine and noticed something odd in Task Manager. Under "Processes," there's an entry called "WmiPrvSE.exe (WMI Provider Host)" and another entry that's related to "BaseNamedObjects" with a mention of "WmiProviderSubsystemHostJob."
As far as I know, WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) is essential for gathering system data for external software, but I'm not entirely sure what the "BaseNamedObjects" part signifies. Could someone explain what this means and if it's something I should be concerned about? Also, could a misbehaving WMI cause performance hits, or is this just a harmless background process?
Any insights or troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated!
