    Consistent CPU Usage by Service Host : Diagnostic Policy Service


    Hello Guys,

    I'm using Windows 10 Home Single Language 64-bit. After the latest Windows update in Feb 2018, I've been experiencing consistent CPU Usage (13-14%) by a Windows Process (Service Host: Diagnostic Policy Service).

    I can't figure out why is this process taking CPU usage every time even when the system is idle. *Huh

    I tried to limit its startup, by changing its startup type to Manual, but this went in vain.

    A screenshot has been added to make it more clear.
