Skypehost.exe (Windows Skype) is a process that runs by default on computers running Windows 10.
The process exists and starts running by default, immediately after the installation or the first cmmovement του λειτουργικού συστήματος, ακόμη και αν ο υπολογιστής σας δεν uses την εφαρμογή Skype ή δεν την έχετε εγκαταστήσει ποτέ στο μηχάνημα σας.
Skypehost.exe works with two applications that Microsoft installs by default in Windows 10: Skype Video and Messaging - Skype.
Messaging is a Skype chat application that allows users to send messages using Skype rather than using other applications to send SMS.
Skype video incorporates most of Skype's features into Windows 10 directly. Allows you to make video calls or voice calls (by turning off the camera).
Skypehost.exe works as a process suspended in Windows 10 if Messaging - Skype or Skype video are not used.
You can see it on your system in the following way:
Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl-Shift-Esc to open Windows Task Manager.
Click on "more details" to display the full screen.
You can find the Skypehost.exe process if on the first screen you highlight the process called "Microsoft Skype" and go to the details tab.

Suspended applications that are suspended or suspended are much used by Windows 10. It is a situation in which the application is as if it is asleep, but it is also ready to go into operating mode as soon as it is activated by the user or automatically.
Suspended apps use little memory and usually do not use a cpu, but it does not make sense to have the process even in suspend mode if you do not use Skype or Messaging Skype.
