| I takes a lot of cpu and ram. I hear from microsoft, it is a service which takes care of looking for updates for your computer. Only if you are running windows vista or windows 7, it is trustworthy... | |||

| TrustedInstaller is used by a service called “Windows Module Installer” which is used to install Windows 7 system modules. The system modules include Windows Update and Automatic Updates which automatically scans your system to check for any new updates and hotfixes available. So when scheduled Windows Update is performing its update scan or check on your system, the TrustedInstaller.exe process increases the CPU usage. | |||
