    Opening Task Manager Changes CPU Usage from 100% -> Normal (Windows 10). [SOLVED]

    I could maybe buy that the processor might spike to 100% for a moment while opening task manager. But that still doesn't explain why the processor is running at 100%
    before I open it. Mind that the computer is just idle. If I leave task manager open my CPU never goes over 5% while idle which definitively shows that having task manager open is preventing the CPU from going over.

    yes, moving wireless mouse will cause little spikes too.

    But never heard of or seen the usage at 100% and then open task manager and it drops to normal. Seems IMPOSSIBLE.

    And I asked him, how does he know it is at 100% before he even opens task manager ??????????

    That is the million dollar new question. And got no reply back!
