The good news is that there is nothing to worry about, as the increased number of processes makes your system more reliable and transparent, and it doesn’t impact its overall performance, on the contrary. However, Xbox sign-ins may fail, as a result of service host separation, as many Insiders have already noticed. This is a known issue, and fortunately, there’s also a quick workaround you can use to fix this bug:
Run the following from an admin Command Prompt (or edit the registry accordingly):REG ADD HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\XblAuthManager /v SvcHostSplitDisable /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f Reboot the system, so that XblAuthManager can share a service host process with Windows Update and Background Intelligent Transfer Service.
Since this is a known issue for Microsoft, the next Windows 10 build should fix it permanently. Meanwhile, if you can’t sign-in to your Xbox account, follow the troubleshooting steps listed above to solve the issue. If this solution doesn’t help, this means your sign-in error is not related to the service host separation.
