As of about 5 days ago I've started getting the message "Taskhost.exe has stopped working" in the Reliability Monitor, usually 2 or 3 times a day. Any ideas on this one campers?

I did SFC /scannow and a DISM /restorehealth on the 17th after the latest Preview Build updated. The errors had shown up previous to that and continue. Just reran SFC and it came up clean.

Haven't installed anything new lately. Did find this in Event Viewer though, and I'm installing ASP.NET Core 8.0 Runtime (v8.0.22) as I type.

The message was, "You must update .NET to run this application."

I think you should heed its advice:

Go into Settings\Apps, search for every app whose name contains ".NET" or "ASP.NET," and try to modify (repair) each one in turn.

If even that fails, go to the Microsoft website and let the latest version of each one.
