Node.JS cause extreme latency and slowly internet

A few weeks ago I've been complaining to my ISP about my internet being slow. With high latency and very low speed.

We did several procedures and when I started testing the office machine I saw that it was something in it. Investigating further, I discovered that the problem is in the "Node.js: Server-side JavaScript (32-bit)" process.

I initially detected the problem only with DreamWeaver CC, so searching the subject on the internet, I saw some people saying to rename the file "node.exe" that runs the process so that it stops at once.

When doing the rename procedure (node.exe.bkp for example), it worked, the internet has returned to normal even with the softwares open. However, at some point I needed the Creative Cloud Library in Adobe Photoshop CC and I saw that the Library in all software did not conect anymore. It was not difficult to connect one thing to another.

Well, I had to rename the file "node.exe.bkp" again to "node.exe" and it all worked again, except my internet, which has the same problem quoted at the beginning of the text. I need a solution for this Adobe.

Have two workstations onf my office and only one have problem when oppen some CC software.

if you disable file sync'ing and/or font sync'ing that should stop node.js

But the heart of the problem is that about 20 days ago this did not happen.

And another...

Where I find these options? In a specific software? Like a Photoshop?

it makes sense to me because the problem does not normally occur.  something has to happen to cause sync to try and upload/download something and fail, so it repeatedly tries.  that stuffs your internet connection.

you might be able to do some network sniffing to see what it's trying to update though now that you've repaired everything the problem should be resolved.


As I say, I am understanding your instructions and your point. But I think this is not a definitive solution because days ago the problem dont exist. Maybe a bug in some update or something like this.

What ever, I think now is ok. My connection is good with normal latency and speed.
