Hi all.. Okay here's the deal... Just now as I was scanning the battery usage I came across this item that was odd... Can someone explain what it is??? Currently in build .318
 
re:

??? Yes a pic or write out what the item says ???

Can't see it from here, you are too far away... :winktongue:
 
re:

It says something like "Age Out Worker" use the battery lee's than 1%. If it's an app, I haven't installed it on my phone. Does it form part of any other apps, I do not know.
 
re:

"Age Out Worker"

Would it be "Auth Work Hoster" by any chance? I see that on one of my 2 phones running W10M. That one had a Reset yesterday and I had a verification issue getting into my Microsoft Account (my text copy of the auth code never came through and I had to use back button and pick another method). Also, my Google Email account needed attention after the Reset. I got a few nags about it. I believe that is the OS trying to reconcile an account authorization.
 
re:

Probably some background task related to W10. While I don't have "Age Out Worker", I do see a couple of non-app items in my list...
MsgMmsTransport
HotSpotHost

<puts tin foil hat on>

Age Out Worker is a peculiar term.:grin:
 
re:

As I speculated before, I'll reiterate.

I think it's a system process, specifically one that watches all the others, and "ages out" the ones that have been idle too long.
