What Is Conhost.exe?

Conhost.exe, or Console Window Host, is a legitimate Windows system process responsible for managing the display and behavior of console windows such as Command Prompt and PowerShell. It facilitates text rendering and manages input/output interactions with the graphical user interface. Each time a console application is launched, a new instance of conhost.exe is created, and multiple instances can appear in Task Manager based on active console applications. To verify the authenticity of conhost.exe, it should run from C:WindowsSystem32 or C:WindowsSysWOW64, have a valid Microsoft Windows Publisher digital signature, and not make outbound network connections. High CPU usage or unusual behavior may indicate malware masquerading as conhost.exe. Troubleshooting steps for issues related to conhost.exe include running a malware scan, checking for Windows updates, updating device drivers, and using the System File Checker. Disabling conhost.exe is not advisable as it is essential for the functioning of console applications.

Microsoft confirms Windows 11 dark mode upgrade, with plans for third-party apps and Registry Editor

Windows 11 has introduced a dark theme that has received positive feedback, but certain legacy pop-ups, like the Properties tab, still use a light background. Microsoft is working on a dark-themed Properties tab and aims to enhance the dark mode experience across the operating system, as confirmed by senior executive Marcus Ash. He mentioned that there are no specific timelines for updates to legacy tools like the Registry Editor, but improvements are being made for consistency in dark mode across system-level dialogs. Third-party applications that do not adopt dark mode will continue to display in light mode, as Microsoft cannot enforce changes on them. Users currently experience inconsistencies with dark mode, particularly with legacy features that still show a light background. In December 2025, Microsoft rolled out dark mode for most operational dialogs, including those for file deletion and error notifications. Dark mode is now visible in various pop-ups, such as notifications for insufficient disk space and Recycle Bin confirmations. Microsoft is also testing dark mode in Windows Run (legacy).

Undeliverable? Why the Kremlin might be set to silence online messaging apps in Russia.

Residents of Moscow are experiencing GPS spoofing in downtown areas, leading many to use paper maps instead of digital navigators due to signal manipulation by security forces to counter Ukrainian drones. The Russian government is "throttling" popular messaging apps like WhatsApp and Telegram in favor of a domestically developed super-app named Max. This strategy aims to reshape online interactions in Russia and is part of broader efforts to control the digital landscape. Analysts suggest that this could lead to a near-total internet shutdown during emergencies, with a published "whitelist" of about 900 essential websites. The internet disruptions have particularly affected younger generations who rely heavily on social networks and online services. Russia's media regulator, Roskomnadzor, has blocked foreign platforms for non-compliance with data localization laws and is targeting messaging apps, making them largely unusable without VPNs. Telegram may face a complete shutdown on April 1. Despite the crackdown, state agencies continue to use Telegram for communication, while security services view these apps as potential threats.

Why Did Messaging App Telegram Fall From Grace in Russia

Russia plans to implement a full block on the messaging app Telegram on April 1, 2026, following increased pressure from authorities over six months, including halting calls, conducting regional shutdowns, and slowing functionality nationwide. Telegram has nearly 96 million users in Russia and serves as a media outlet and communication tool for various state agencies and military personnel. The app was initially embraced by the Russian government but faced conflicts leading to previous blocking attempts in 2017, which were largely unsuccessful. In 2020, Telegram was allowed to operate freely again, but the situation changed after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, with increased scrutiny following the launch of VK's messaging app, MAX. Recent developments suggest Telegram could be classified as an extremist organization, posing legal risks for its founder and users. Additionally, the Federal Antimonopoly Service claimed advertising on Telegram was illegal, complicating its market presence in Russia, where it hosts about 40 percent of the influencer market.

Zelensky Says Ukraine Targeting Kremlin-Backed Messaging App Max

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that Ukraine is working to penetrate Max, a messaging app backed by the Russian state, amid restrictions on platforms like Telegram and WhatsApp imposed by Russia's media regulator, Roskomnadzor. He noted that both Ukrainian and Russian intelligence agencies use Telegram for recruitment and influencing public perception regarding the conflict. Reports indicate access issues with Telegram in Russia, suggesting a possible government blockade ahead of a crackdown next month. Access to Max is limited to Russian citizens with domestic phone numbers and users from "friendly" countries, reflecting the government's control over information flow.
