You are not alone! Many Windows PC users have complained on tech forums about facing errors with Dismhost.exe. We have written a complete troubleshooting guide to help our readers fix the issue in no time. Without further ado, let us begin with understanding a few details about the DISM host servicing process.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What Is The DISM Host Servicing Process?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is a process designed by Microsoft to assist in the functioning of the Deployment Imaging Service and Management Tool (DISM). Its main role is to manage and service Windows images when the Windows OS is being updated or repaired.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Dismhost.exe is located in C:\\Windows\\System32\\. If you find this process running from another location, then it could be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.systweak.com\/blogs\/difference-between-malware-and-virus\/\">malware<\/a> pretending to be a legitimate process. This is a safe process when it runs occasionally, but you should be concerned if it spikes the CPU constantly and indefinitely.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Why Does DISM Host Servicing Process Show High CPU Usage?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The actual dismhost.exe designed by Microsoft might use more CPU resources in certain scenarios, like &#8211;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">When DISM or SFC tools are launched on the Windows PC.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Windows updates are being installed.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">If the Windows system image is being repaired, the dismhost.exe spikes CPU usage.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Managing system recovery features.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, you need to be concerned if the DISM host servicing process is using high CPU constantly. This might be due to &#8211;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Windows update files corruption<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Corrupted System files<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Malware infection<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fix DISM Host Servicing Process Show High CPU Usage (14 Ways)<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We have listed a few methods to fix DISM Host Servicing processes that show high CPU usage. You can try each method and check the results. If the issue is fixed, then you can ignore the remaining methods.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Method 1 &#8211; Reboot Your PC &amp; Router<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The first fix that is common for all minor and major issues is to restart the computer. This will help rule out if the issue has occurred due to a temporary glitch. While you are restarting the PC, we recommend that you restart the router as well to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.systweak.com\/blogs\/advanced-system-optimizer-the-best-pc-cleaner\/\">clear out any temporary files like cache<\/a>, which may build up and cause issues related to the DISM host servicing process on Windows 10\/11. To reboot your router, switch off the power socket of the router and pull the plug out for 60 seconds before plugging it back in.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Method 2 &#8211; Check for Background Apps &amp; Services<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The next step to fix the DISM host servicing process high CPU usage error is to open the Task Manager and check for background apps that are using high CPU resources. We recommend turning them off so that the DISM Host service can use more resources for a short time and complete its task. This way, the service will end automatically.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here is what you need to do &#8211;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Right-click on any empty space on your taskbar and choose Task Manager.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">A new window will open where you have to click on the Processes tab in the left panel and look for apps that are consuming high CPU resources.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Right-click on all such apps and choose End Task from the context menu.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-30538 \" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.systweak.com\/content\/wp\/bg_systweak_com\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Check-for-Background-Apps.webp\" alt=\"Check for Background Apps\" width=\"742\" height=\"230\" sizes=\"(max-width: 742px) 100vw, 742px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wait for some time, and the Dismhost.exe process will complete its task and disappear. If not, then locate the process in the list and right-click on it to choose End task.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Method 3- Clean Up Windows Update Cache<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Moving on, to fix the issue with the DISM host servicing process on Windows 10\/11 PC, we have to clean up the Windows Update Cache. This is done because corrupted update files can cause DISM to run continuously and result in high CPU usage. Here is what you need to do &#8211;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Press Win + R to launch the RUN dialog box, type \u201cCMD\u201d, and press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to open the Command Prompt window in admin mode.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Type the following commands one by one, followed by Enter to stop the Windows Update Services in the background.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>net stop wuauserv<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>net stop bits<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Next, copy and paste the following command and press Enter to delete the update cache.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">del \/f \/s \/q %windir%\\SoftwareDistribution\\Download<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">To restart the Windows Update Services, type the following commands one by one and press the Enter key after each command.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>net start wuauserv<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>net start bits<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Method 4 &#8211; Run Deployment Image Servicing and Management<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some experts have suggested that running the DISM tool again may help to get rid of this problem.
