Windows 10 The protocol host process XXXX did not respond and is being forcibly terminated {filter host process XXXX}.

I noticed in Event Viewer this morning a slew of Warning messages that go like this:


The protocol host process 6384 did not respond and is being forcibly terminated {filter host process 9096}.



The host process number and the filter host process number are not always the same. Meaning every few minutes I get a new warning like this:


The protocol host process 8144 did not respond and is being forcibly terminated {filter host process 2004}.

The protocol host process 7480 did not respond and is being forcibly terminated {filter host process 896}.
The protocol host process 6880 did not respond and is being forcibly terminated {filter host process 5404}.
The protocol host process 6052 did not respond and is being forcibly terminated {filter host process 6216}.
The protocol host process 8568 did not respond and is being forcibly terminated {filter host process 5480}.

Etc.


Here is a screen shot of Event Viewer:




What is this and how do I fix it?


Thanks
