    High CPU usage when moving windows


    I first noticed this issue when moving a panel around in an application I'm developing, but after further testing found that whenever I move almost any application around my screen I get 20-30% CPU usage from that application. I haven't ever noticed this before and am just wondering how to solve this. Is there a simple solution or should I simply try re-installing Windows?

    If any other information is needed just ask *Smile

    :)

  2. Windows 10 100% Disk Problem on Task Manager

    "However I believe 100% disk usage on task manager is not normal. "

    It's definitely not normal. When your system is idle (not working on anything), the CPU usage should be 1% or less.

    Now sometimes there is background work that happens -- there's thousands of things the computer does on-schedule. So sometimes it's not going to be completely idle. I explain what those things are in my post about High CPU Usage in Windows 10:
