Difficult to turn off Live Mesh RRS feed

  • General discussion

  • I have experienced a problem, connected to the "Mesh Operating Environment". The service is running all the time, even when there are no new items to sync. It is consuming a lot of processing power on my laptop, slowing it down more than I can accept. Turning Mesh off was difficult. Using "Work offline" and "Exit" did not stop this service from running. I had to kill it three times in Windows Task Manager before it disappeared. I run Windows Vista.

    Any comments or solutions to this?

  • The process does run all the time and isn't meant to be stopped. What kind of CPU usage are you seeing? What security software are you running? Are you on SP2 for Vista? Are there any other sync products running?
