Q: Disnoted process is driving me crazy ...

My MacBook Air is getting stucked with a high processor comsuption caused by a process called DISNOTED. I´ve googled and there are lots of comments regarding what appear to be a bug. I´m using OS X El Capitan 10.11.6. The only way to get my MBA back in business is doing a hard reset. Is there a solution besides the one I mentioned?

MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11)

    Try this:

     

    Boot into Safe Mode. This is slower than a normal boot, so be patient. Does the problem you've described cease? Now, reboot normally. If the problem is still gone, then it was caused by a corrupted cache file removed by the preceding. If the problem persists, then you need to quit all your third-party software that you have running until the "disnoted" process returns to normal. Skype is known as a potential cause of the problem.
