    I have Windows 10 1809 and the last 3 days I’ve gotten a high activity of something called “WassMedic Agent exe”. It starts up right after turning on my computer, stays active for about 10 minutes, and then it stops for the rest of the day. What’s this? What does this thing do? It’ an indicator for something?
    
    I miss Windows XP...

    It’s the WindowsasaService health program, fixing your system (as MS sees fit) 😉
    It’s not new.
