What is vshub.exe in the system tray?

I installed Visual Studio 14. Now I have a new app VsHub in the system tray / notification area. What is it? I tried clicking and right-clicking on it, it doesn't do anything.


Solution 1:

According to Visual Studio Blog site (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudio/archive/2014/08/18/visual-studio-14-ctp-3-released.aspx?PageIndex=2&wa=wsignin1.0):

"The Visual Studio Hub is an executable that supports multi-tool communication across the VS family of apps, service composition/isolation, and data/compute outside of the Visual Studio process."

Solution 2:

I solved stopping the folliwing Windows service:

Visual Studio Standard Collector Service

After stop, my pc is returned to work correclty, without strange load.

I hope this help you.
