    CPU Usage


    I have found that my CPU usage is running at 30%, due to Service Host: Local System (15). I have the list of the 15 processes, but how do I find which one is using all the power?

    Thank You

    Windows 10 extreme CPU usage

    Thanks, but yes I was definitely seeing this issue while that trace was recorded.

    Task manager was constantly showing 100% CPU usage and Resource monitor shows silly numbers for the CPU usage (40441489%).

    If I sum the numbers under CPU in the Processes tab in Resource monitor, it matches the values shown in the trace (i.e., CPU usage is not 100%, but the charts and summary total at the top of the processes tab are maxed out.

    In task manager the CPU usage numbers seem to be normalised to 100%.

    i.e. they are constantly changing but seem to always add up to 100%.

    I think that the CPU usage reported in the trace is correct, but Task Manager and Resource monitor are doing something wrong?

  3. WMI Provider Host is using significant CPU activity on my laptop with window 10. Is this a problem and is this slowing down my laptop?

    Should I be doing anything concerning the amount of CPU usage taken by WMI Providr Host, 15 to 22% CPU usage ?
