Many of the times that we see the error android.process.media has stopped is due to poor download management . Whether it is a download from the Android or Google Play browser , the fact is that the download application is corrupted, so a possible solution is to clear the cache of said app.

android.process.media VIRUS
I strongly recommend that you do not put in Google “android.process.media” , because some smart has bought a domain with extension “.media” (instead of .com) . Why? So that when you do a Google search with “android.process.media” you enter a website with VIRUSES called android.process.MEDIA . You can easily check this with the footprints or search command “site:” , putting the following in the Google search engine :
- site:android.process.media
You will get a beautiful website full of viruses indexed in Google , do not enter because when I looked for information to create this article it was the first thing I did and I got a window full of viruses on my mobile . I thought it was infected and it’s not… it ‘s a SPAM website with that name .
