  2. Intermittent CPU Usage spikes due to Powershell

    PowerShell will increase usage if its doing something. Why even look at CPU usage when using the terminal? Its an application like anything else but its a terminal.

    If you're leaving PowerShell idle and open for no reason then why do that? Close it and open it when you need it.

    Mind you applications can draw CPU usage when open and especially when not minimized. They do have to be drawn on the screen. So anything that they need to update when cause a redrawn.

  3. Task Manager High CPU Usage

    I have the same problem myself with it only happens when I scroll through task manager and open and close it. I don't know this for sure but the reason this probably happens is that you may have a lot of processes running and task manager is using a lot
    of the CPU to process the usage of each program.

    What I have done is disable data that I don't need to see like network usage and GPU usage and it drops the CPU usage a bit. I have also enabled everything and scrolled up and down on it and task manager uses almost twice as much.

    I would suggest disabling everything but CPU, disk, and RAM, (I would not suggest having GPU on because it is almost always at 99% unless you have FPS limits).

    Powershell and high cpu usage

    I have a Toshiba Satellite running Win 10 with the latest update and Norton 360. At times programmes are unresponsive for some seconds. After startup but without running any programmes Task Manager shows spikes up to 100% of very high CPU and disk usage.
    This is mainly caused by powershell 32 bit which starts, spikes and disappears all the time. I have disabled powershell but it has not stopped it appearing and disappearing from the list of processes. Is this normal? I might be incorrectly attributing
    unresponsive programmes to powershell activities.

    I have scanned, using Norton, for security issues but nothing has been revealed.

    There was a similar question on this topic some years ago but the thread closed before a solution was posted. Can anyone enlighten me please?
