From the link:
24 hours after switching from one virtual processor to two, the Unistack Services CPU hogging really seems to have disappeared.

you should be able to use process explorer and expand the svchost.exe and see what is rolled up with it.

for example: I have 14 them running. when i click one of them, then put the mouse over it. It shows what is running under the process. You can also right mouse click and select properties. in the properties menu, look at the service tab.
and you might see what services is registered in the process.

I looked at one that looks like it does not have any info, but the services tab show that it is part of
windows Image acquisition.

I solved the problem by setting in the Registry the start value for these two fields from 3 (manual) to 4 (disable)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\UnistoreSvc
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\UserDataSvc
