  1. High CPU usage after window update


    Around 2 April my pc auto downloaded and installed window update. Restart thing took around 4-5 hours to install updateAfter this update my laptop became slow and cpu usage is relatively high.Whenever I play games it becomes really high and there are lots of shutters and lags, it makes game barely playable.aAnd I don't know why cpu utilisation in task manger is not same as Nvidia's overlay I tried to find solution on internet but I couldn't, so i asked chatgpt and it told me to disable Virtualisation based security after that games are little bit playable.Specs : i7-8750H Gtx 1060

  3. WIN10 1703 update cause Explorer.exe high CPU usage

    Hi,



    Glad you reached out. First, we would like to know if Explorer.exe
    is the only cause of high CPU usage. Because the common cause of high CPU usage are the following:

    - Windows 10 Memory leak after the update.

    - Driver incompatibilities after the update.

    - Multiple startup applications





    We'll be waiting for your update.

    Windows Explorer high CPU Usage in Windows 10

    Hi Andrew,

    Usually, too many background processes can boost your CPU usage. Since you already disabled the apps that are not necessary on startup,
    we suggest checking the applications running once you have successfully boot Windows 10. To do this, simply follow the steps below:

    • Click on the Start button and type Task Manager on the search box.
    • On the Task Manager window, you should see the programs running.
    • Click on the More details drop-down button to see the total number of apps running and their real-time CPU usage.

    From there, you should see what applications are running on high CPU usage. You can also
    restart the Windows Management Instrumentation service and see if your CPU performance will improve. Follow the instructions below to restart the service:

    • Click on the Start button and type Services.
    • Scroll down the list and look for Windows Management Instrumentation.
    • Right click on it and select Restart.

    Should you have further questions, please let us know.
