Windows 10: Recent Update on 11/12/24 making app cpu spike?

I shut down my computer for the night when the update was available, it updated by the morning but whenever I open any type of app the CPU usage spikes. I'll open an app that usually takes maybe 10-15% and it'll be using 80-90% making everything incredibly slow, this has been going for every single app opened, even task manager.

Audiodg.exe Spikes Cpu Usage

Every 5 minutes or so audiodg.exe spikes my cpu usage to about 50% and any audio im playing cuts out and then comes back a second or 2 later. The video is completely fine and it's not a problem with
my USB Headset. audiodg.exe stays at low cpu usage when it's not spiking.

Solutions I've tried:

1. turning off audio enhancements
2. reinstalling lan, and audio drivers
3. turning off HPET
4. lowering the sound quality in control panel
5. DPC Latency checker (no change when spiking)

None of these solutions work. Please help.

 

Bluetooth mouse causing CPU spike?

Hi, I've been having an on and off issue lately with CPU spikes seemingly causes by a Bluetooth mouse. The easiest way for me to cause the issue is to let the mouse sit for a minute with no input and then click or move the mouse, at which point a seemingly random service will suddenly spike in CPU usage causing Bluetooth to temporarily disconnect, the keyboard to delay input until the spike is over, and occasionally a beeping through the headphones. The services I've noticed in the spike include Antimalware Service Executable, Thrustmaster Update Service (which has since been uninstalled), and LightunfService (which appears to be tied to ASUS lighting software), but others have topped the list in Task Manager too. The mouse is a Steelseries Rival 3 and all drivers I can find for anything have been updated. Any ideas or tips?
