CPU usage stuck at 2.00 GHz in games with 100%cpu usage

Hi, I'm Hania, I'm here to help you.

I'm sorry about your issue. If your CPU Usage is at 100%, it could be possible that your laptop tried working more than it has capacity. I suggest you uninstall the game and reinstall it. Also, check if your device is able to run the game or not, click on the below link to follow the steps.

Kind Regards,

Hania.

Anniversary Update: Windows 10 CPU usage 100% All the time

Thank you for the information...

To update you all, I thought I had it fixed, but it yet again randomly jumped to 100% CPU usage.

I had a Microsoft tech remote it, try *everything* and I mean *everything* in terms of disabling services.msc items, editing the registry, adjusting startup services, doing repair disk, Windows 10 upgrade, ending tasks that appeared to take up the majority of the usage and more.

This tech was top tier type of support, because it was escalated. When all his options were exhausted, he mentioned updated the BIOS would be the answer.

So I updated the BIOS to the latest version (which took several steps).

Then I did a wipe and reinstall of Windows 10, and I reinstalled my programs.

Everything was fine and dandy until this morning, as OneDrive was syncing files, it shot up to 100%. The only thing I did was change the power settings to "never" for going to sleep and 3 hours until display sleeps.

I have reverted to 1 hour to sleep / 1 hour to display sleeping and it's still at 100% CPU usage...

It doesn't matter how many processes are running, my PC will just randomly pick a few of the most active ones and say it takes up like 80%/90%/ even 100% of my CPU. It's so frustrating.

Any help at this point would be a Godsend. *Sad
