Run the DISM and sfc commands (google it), if that doesn’t help locate the exact app it’s pointing to and delete/quarantine it to see if that fixes it. Chances are it’s malicious, as an actual taskhostw wouldn’t cause this issue

I would love to say that it has worked but I have tried and its a Windows approve application which is restricting me from quarantine or deleting it.
