Windows uses taskhost.exe as the host for all DLL based services that are run. The process is very similar to svchost.exe (which we talked about earlier) in that it’s a generic process used to load other entities. Because of this, taskhost.exe may open multiple instances of itself in order to handle DLL’s that may be unrelated to one another. and How do we can fix taskhost.exe errors?

Most errors experienced with taskhost.exe is caused of corrupting the DLL files or a fake malware masquerading around your system under the taskhost.exe name. In either case you’ll need to track down the bad DLL or malware and replace or remove it. If you are experiencing taskhost.exe issues while running certain programs (video editing software, games, etc..) then it is likely that the corrupted DLL is related to one of your hardware drivers for either your Video or Sound device.
