Windows 10 Mobile is Exploded for Background Stealing Traffic
Windows 10 Mobile is Exploded for Background Stealing Traffic

The number of Windows 10 installed on Microsoft's computer side quickly exceeded 200 million, but the development path of the mobile version appears uneven. After Windows 10 Mobile experienced several upgrades and delays, a foreign media once again found that the Lumia 950 XL in use consumed more traffic in January this year than before. Data Sense software monitors that a process named "System" has consumed more than 900MB of traffic in the past 17 days.


Later, it was found that this was not an individual case. These users had reported the same problem, and the culprit was that text messages were automatically backed up to OneDrive by default in the settings. So if you use a new phone or clean the current phone, it will be synchronized and restored. It should be noted that the traffic consumption of backing up these text messages is not very large, but this should also be done through the WiFi network. Howse said that if the bug is fixed, he will restart the function.


This function has appeared on the WP system for some time, and usually needs to be set to the off state. After turning off this setting, the traffic can be reduced to normal. In the main window of SMS application, click the "..." button at the bottom right corner, select settings, and then close Message Sync.

At present, there is a solution, but it is not officially released. Microsoft employees posted it on Reddit posts, and then Paul Thurrott shared it to Thurrott.com. This at least fixes the problem of Lumia 950 XL in the hands of foreign media. In the last 24 hours, the "System" process only consumed 0.5MB of traffic.
