    High CPU Temperatures recorded due to Windows Modulus and Windows Malicious Software...


    Once my laptop fan started spinning vigorously, i checked task manager to see if any background processes were in action. I found "Windows Modulus Installer Worker" , which was working for about 2-3 minutes, followed by "Windows Malicious Software removal" which worked for 1-2 minutes. The fact that these can heat up and damage the cpu in such less time is concerning. I understand that being in Windows Insider, means I will get frequent updates, so the 1st process i can bare with, but I dont understand the use / need of the 2nd process at all, i believe windows does detect McAfee installed on

    CPU Temperature is very High in Windows 10

    Hi,

    I am using Lenovo X220 notebook having Core i5 second generation processor and 4 GB ram. I was using Windows 7 and never checked CPU temperature but as soon as I updated to Windows 10 I noticed about temperature of my notebook. The notebook was becoming
    very hot on CPU side. The air was also so hot from CPU vent so I installed CPU temp monitor software and shocked that temperature was over 90 degrees centigrade despite I was using only web browser.

    So I installed again Windows 7 and all things have become normal. I also see some post regarding the same issue but did not find satisfactory answer. I don't think to update the drivers is the solution. Something is in Windows 10 that is causing the problem.

    Any suggestions.

    CPU Temperature

    I have tried to follow different sets of instructions on how to reveal the CPU temperature gauge. They either fail to match what I see on the screen or fail to tell me what function key to press when I eventually get to the list of options. Can anyone
    clarify this for me. (I'm investigating the possibility that instability on my Sony All-in-one PC is being caused by high temperature).
