You brought this on yourself. Maybe NSA can give you some tech support, they have full control over it anyway. I bet you don't even have to tell your computer model for that.

Windows 10 does "maintinance" all the fucking time when idling for a large amount of time and stops when you come back
Even wakes itself up to do other things at dumb times like 1-3am
You can disable it though

>I thought my computer was being used to mine bitcoin or something
My brother's friends made thousands of dollars in bitcoin this way. They made some generator or tool for Minecraft and in the middle of the EULA wrote that 30% of the user's processing power will be used to mine bitcoin. Nobody reads the EULA.

It's just windows triggering it's update
>>55249647
It's windows downloading and installing updates in the background.

It's because some bash script ran for a second, probably malware or a virus.

No, just TRIM'ing them.

Last one probably has to do with Windows processes being named more suspiciously than most malware.

I had a Lumia 920 and it updated to WP8.1 or whatever when it was on 4G, but it wouldn't let me download the few apps that exists on that shitty OS from the store when on 4G if they were bigger than 20 MB
