    Recent high DWM cpu usage with Chrome on old laptop


    Hello,

    I've got Windows 10 (32 bit) running on a old HP DV6000 (T2130) with 3Gb RAM.

    It was running OK until recently (I suspect 1803...).

    DWM CPU usage goes very high along with Chrome CPU needs (usually half CPU needed by Chrome but can rise up to the same level).

    Fan is now constantly running.

    Disabled all visual enhancements. Graphics driver is old but up to date...

    Any idea ?

    Thanks.

    :)

    high cpu usage

    After downloading windows 10, anytime I run any programs, I get high CPU usage. It does not matter whether it is google chrome, task manager, playing games, whatever. Anything seems to spike the CPU usage. I have already run malwarbytes and my antivirus
    programs and find no viruses. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    High cpu usage caused by tiworker.exe

    I noticed this today, too. I was not doing anything, Chrome was open but on a static page. Closed Chrome and still noticed high CPU usage. Sort Processes by CPU and it was bouncing 20-30%. Reading that it is the update process so I ran Windows Update
    and there were no updates. I did not look at network activity but CPU Usage declined a little but WTF is is still using so much? And why is it ALWAYS running?

    "Critical" suggests it will crash the system if terminated. I killed the process without any issue.
