Windows 10: PC left on idle does heavy processing, but stops when you open task manager? Here's the...

Script which monitors usage and logs in the console any abnormal behaviour - https://github.com/ERGeorgiev/WindowsUtilities

I wrote it a while ago to keep an eye on my server, but I though it's very useful against trickly bitcoin miners or other issues.

Extremely high idle memory usage

Here is your first step:

1- Open Task Manager to the Processes tab and look at the Memory column.

2- What process(es) are using so much of your memory?

 

Task Manager overrun with unidentified Processes

Task Manager is getting overrun with unidentified Processes
hogging my ram and cpu . when i try to stop these it says Access Denied .

I need tools that give me control to stop and prevent these tasks, and also beyond any doubt identify the processes .

Alot of svg hosts etc. This is just a part of the list. There is a whole row More of these processes.
I'm almost certain this is making a game i play crash a lot .

Note i am using process hacker a tool i found online that gives more information on processes - that is the Task manager im using as seen in the preview.
But even that i dont understand how to use if it was useful in this at all. I just want some brute force method of dealing with this. But willing to look around .

 

CPU at 100% due to System idle process

Hi,

system idle process means processor is not loaded by any task and is waiting until it will be need to do something. So this is normal if there are no heavy tasks at this moment.
