This may seem trivial,and might just be my OCD kicking in, but yesterday I noticed TrustedInstaller ran in the morning and did a check for updates, and then it just stayed in Task manager most of the day, using no CPU or ram or anything really, just sitting

at 900 kb. Thing is, it never does this. I'm completely updated (using Windows 7 desktop), so I restarted yesterday afternoon and it was gone for the rest of the day, until waking the computer from sleep this morning it ran again and now is just sitting in

task manager, again doing nothing I think. It did another check for updates this morning, found none, so why is it running? I have 1 "important" update from January that's been there, the Framework kb2901983 update that's not really necessary and I don't

think would start causing this problem since it's been there since January. Also have some optional updates,again, from past few months, although one is recent, May 15th, a Windows 7 update that I guess isn't important.

So why is it running if it's not installing anything? Will it go away eventually? Usually if that's running, rundll32 is running too, but it's not. So again, is this nothing to worry about?
