Windows 10: How to disable a CPU core in Windows?

So I have my hands on a refurbished laptop, and it has been having crashes from the start. After a very long troubleshooting, I found the evidence that the third physical core in the processor is having problems. To use Windows, I need to lock down the whole processor frequency to a certain level for it to not crash. In Linux, if I turn the third core offline, then I am able to use the other 3 cores quad core processor fine at max frequency.Let's kindly not start from square one asking "What's the BSOD error code" and all that. I have been active with these questions a lot over and over agai

How to disable CPU core parking windows 10?

I'm trying to disable CPU Core Parking feature on window 10 so that my multi-processing code can utilize the full capacity of my processor (here is a question I asked earlier on StackOverflow for context). I tried every solution mentioned here to disable this feature (and more solutions) and nothing seems to be working, no matter what I do, this annoying "Parked" tag keeps showing up in the resource monitor.




the confusing part is that; according to the approach of manually editing registry entries referenced below:



the max value of the key: "0cc5b647-c1df-4637-891a-dec35c318583" should be changed from 100% to 0%, while using a 3rd party application such as Park Control or Quick CPU sets the max value of the same registry key to 100% and surprisingly, neither is working.

I appreciate any help and thanks in advance.
