Do you check the Task Manager when your PC is performing more poorly than usual? After all, this tool allows you to see the items that are slowing down your computer. Perhaps, you\u2019ve seen the Modern Setup Host causing high CPU usage.<\/p>\n<p>It is only natural to want to learn about this program that\u2019s eating up your disk space. If this is the case for you, then you\u2019ll be glad you found this post. Here, we are going to discuss everything you need to know about Modern Setup Host. What\u2019s more, we will teach you how to fix the common issues associated with it.<\/p>\n<h2>What is Modern Setup Host in Windows 10?<\/h2>\n<p>When you look inside the <em>C:$Windows.BTSources<\/em> folder, you will see the Modern Setup Host executable file. It is a self-extracting archive and installer. In certain circumstances, it will show up on your computer if it runs the Windows beta system version (Windows Technical Preview).<\/p>\n<p>Modern Setup Host runs in the background when your system detects or installs updates. It also plays an important role in running the setup file for upgrading a PC to Windows 10.<\/p>\n<p>Like other Windows components, Modern Setup Host also has its fair share of issues. Here are the most common problems users reported:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Modern Setup Host causing high CPU usage<\/li>\n<li>Modern Setup Host has stopped working<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In most cases, Modern Setup Host errors have something to do with Windows Update issues. In this post, we share the most effective ways to deal with this problem. Moreover, we are going to discuss how you can optimize the speed of your PC when you see the Modern Setup Host at 100% disk usage.<\/p>\n<h2>Solution 1: Running the Windows Update Troubleshooter<\/h2>\n<p>One of the best ways to resolve Modern Setup Host errors is running the Windows Update troubleshooter. If you\u2019re using Windows 10, the tool is built-in. However, if your computer runs Windows 7 or Windows 8, you need to go to Microsoft\u2019s website and download the troubleshooter. Here are the steps for running the troubleshooter on Windows 10:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Press <code>Windows Key+S<\/code> on your keyboard.<\/li>\n<li>Now, type <code>troubleshoot<\/code>.<\/li>\n<li>Select <em>Troubleshoot<\/em> from the results.<\/li>\n<li>Go to the right pane, then select <em>Windows Update<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Run the Troubleshooter<\/em> button.<\/li>\n<li>Wait for the troubleshooter to identify and address the issues.<\/li>\n<li>Follow the on-screen instructions to resolve the problems.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>For Windows 7 and Windows 8, follow the instructions below:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to Microsoft\u2019s website and download the troubleshooter.<\/li>\n<li>Once you\u2019ve downloaded the troubleshooter, double-click the executable file to run it.<\/li>\n<li>Choose <em>Windows Update<\/em>, then click <em>Next<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Now, the <em>Windows Update troubleshooter<\/em> will detect and fix all the issues.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Solution 2: Performing a DISM Scan<\/h2>\n<p>Modern Setup Host errors might have something to do with a corrupted Windows update. Thankfully, you can use Windows 10\u2019s Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) tool. This command-line program can help you resolve the issue. Here are the steps for running the DISM tool on your PC:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to your taskbar and click the <em>Search<\/em> icon.<\/li>\n<li>Type <code>cmd<\/code>.<\/li>\n<li>Right-click <em>Command Prompt<\/em> from the results, then select <em>Run as Administrator<\/em> from the options.<\/li>\n<li>If prompted to give permission, click <em>Yes<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Once <em>Command Prompt<\/em> is up, run the following commands:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<pre>DISM.exe \/Online \/Cleanup-image \/Scanhealth\r\n\r\nDISM.exe \/Online \/Cleanup-image \/Checkhealth\r\n\r\nDISM.exe \/Online \/Cleanup-image \/Restorehealth<\/pre>\n<p>Keep in mind that the scan and repair process will take several minutes to complete. It is important that you let it run without disrupting it. Once the process is done, check if the Modern Setup Host issue persists. If it is still there, you can move on to the next solution.<\/p>\n<h2>Solution 3: Performing a Clean Boot<\/h2>\n<p>You\u2019re likely seeing the Modern Setup Host error message because certain background programs are interfering with Windows Update. To resolve this problem, you need to perform a clean boot. Doing so allows you to launch your system with only the essential drivers and startup programs. You can perform a clean boot by following these steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>On your keyboard, press <code>Windows Key+R<\/code>. This will open the <em>Run dialog<\/em> box.<\/li>\n<li>Type <code>msconfig<\/code>, then click <em>OK<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Once the <em>System Configuration<\/em> window is up, go to the <em>General tab<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Deselect <em>Load Startup Items<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Services tab<\/em>, then tick the \u2018<em>Hide all Microsoft services<\/em>\u2019 option at the bottom of the window.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Disable All<\/em> button.<\/li>\n<li>Go to the <em>Startup tab<\/em> and click <em>Open Task Manager<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Once <em>Task Manager<\/em> is open, click the <em>Startup tab<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Identify all the startup items with the <em>Enabled<\/em> status. Right-click each of them, then select <em>Disable<\/em> from the options.<\/li>\n<li>Close <em>Task Manager<\/em> and go back to the <em>System Configuration<\/em> window.<\/li>\n<li>On the <em>System Configuration<\/em> window, click <em>OK<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Restart your PC.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Once your computer restarts, try installing the updates again. Check if the Modern Setup Host issue is gone.<\/p>\n<h2>Solution 4: Using the Ideal Default System Language<\/h2>\n<p>Windows Update issues can also occur when a computer\u2019s system language does not match the default system UI language. You can resolve this problem through our solutions below:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Checking your Default System UI Language:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Press <code>Windows Key+S<\/code> on your keyboard.<\/li>\n<li>Now, you need to type <code>cmd<\/code>.<\/li>\n<li>Right-click <em>Command Prompt<\/em> and select <em>Run as Administrator<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>If prompted by <em>User Account Control<\/em> to give access to the program, click <em>Yes<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Inside <em>Command Prompt<\/em>, type <code>dism \/online \/get-intl<\/code>, then press <code>Enter<\/code>. You will now be able to see your default system UI language.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Checking your System Language (Windows 10):<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open the <em>Settings app<\/em> by pressing <code>Windows Key+I<\/code> on your keyboard.<\/li>\n<li>Select <em>Time &amp; Language<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>On the left-pane menu, click <em>Region &amp; Language<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Look at the right pane and check if the language is the same as your default system UI language.<\/li>\n<li>If the language is set to a different option, amend it accordingly. After doing that, try installing the updates again and check if the <em>Modern Setup Host<\/em> issue is gone. On the other hand, if the language already matches your default system UI language, you can move on to Solution 5.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Checking your System Language (Windows 7):<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open the <em>Run dialog<\/em> box by pressing <code>Windows Key+R<\/code> on your keyboard.<\/li>\n<li>Type <code>control<\/code>, then click <em>OK<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure that the <em>View By<\/em> option is set to <em>Large Icons<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Select <em>Region and Language<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Check if the language matches your default system UI language. If not, modify it accordingly. However, if it is already set to the correct language option, you can try the next solution.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"cta-block cta-block_troubleshooter\" data-cta-type=\"tsh\" data-cta-position=\"middle\" data-keyword=\"modernsetuphostproblems\">\r\n\t<div class=\"cta-block__heading_tsh\">Fix this issue quickly<\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"cta-block__text_tsh\">You can try using a safe and totally free tool developed by the Auslogics team of experts.<\/div>\r\n\t<div class=\"cta-block__title_tsh\">A few simple steps to troubleshoot the issue:<\/div>\r\n\t<div class=\"cta-block__list\">\r\n    \t<div class=\"cta-block__text_tsh\">Download the tiny Auslogics TroubleShooter tool.<\/div>\r\n    \t<div class=\"cta-block__text_tsh\">Run the application (no installation is needed).<\/div>\r\n    \t<div class=\"cta-block__text_tsh\">The app will check for the issue mentioned in the article.

However, unnecessary files in this folder can cause the updates to fail. To fix this issue, you can follow the steps below:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>On your keyboard, press <code>Windows Key+R<\/code> to open the <em>Run dialog<\/em> box.<\/li>\n<li>Paste this path:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><em>C:\\Windows\\SoftwareDistribution\\Download<\/em><\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>Click <em>OK<\/em> to proceed.<\/li>\n<li>Select all the items in the folder by pressing <code>Ctrl+A<\/code> on your keyboard. Right-click the selected items, then choose <em>Delete<\/em> from the options.<\/li>\n<li>You might see the <em>Folder Access Denied<\/em> message. In the pop-up window, select the \u2018<em>Do this for all current items<\/em>\u2019 option, then click <em>Continue<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Restart your PC.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Once your computer reboots, try installing the updates again to see if the Modern Setup Host error is gone.<\/p>\n<h2>Solution 6: Disabling Windows Update<\/h2>\n<p>One of the ways to eliminate the Modern Setup Host problem is to disable Windows Update. You can do this if you do not want to install any updates for your system or you never plan on upgrading to Windows 10. Here are the steps for disabling Windows Update on your PC:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open the <em>Run dialog<\/em> box. You can do this by pressing <code>Windows Key+R<\/code> on your keyboard.<\/li>\n<li>Now, type <code>services.msc<\/code>, then press <code>Enter<\/code>.<\/li>\n<li>Once the <em>Services<\/em> window is up, look for <em>Windows Update<\/em>, then right-click it.<\/li>\n<li>Select <em>Properties<\/em> from the options.<\/li>\n<li>Go to the <em>General<\/em> tab, then ensure that the <em>Startup type<\/em> option is set to <em>Disabled<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Stop<\/em> button.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Recovery<\/em> tab, and set the <em>First Failure<\/em> option to <em>Take No Action<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Save the changes by clicking <em>Apply<\/em> and <em>OK<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"tipsbox\">\r\n\t<div class=\"tipsbox__heading\">\r\n\t\t<div class=\"tipsbox__arrow-right\"><\/div>\r\n\t\t<div class=\"tipsbox__shield\">PRO TIP<\/div>\r\n\t\t<div class=\"tipsbox__arrow-left\"><\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n\t<div class=\"tipsbox__text\">If you notice that your computer is still slow despite resolving the Modern Setup Host issue, then we recommend using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/go\/blog_boost_hardbs\/en\/software\/boost-speed\/downloads\/?ref=fix-modern-setup-host-problems\">Auslogics BoostSpeed<\/a>.
