I have honest to god no clue what WLIDSVC.EXE is but it looks like it doesn't belong on my resource monitor. Is it a virus, spyware, unwanted file or some kind of worm?

you can check suspicious file(s) here
www.virustotal.com
/
www.metadefender.com
/
www.jotti.org
If scanned before, always click rescan for a fresh result
On VirusTotal you find some tabs that will give you lots of extra info after a scan
Like who made the file / file version / digitally signed / how old, fist seen by VT and much more
