    Process taskhostw.exe has a high CPU consumption of 99.0%.

    Hello Steven12345678910,

    thank you for providing this question.

    I am a seasoned Windows expert with almost a decade in usage and support experience and hope to resolve your problems quickly.

    If your cpu is idling it will show a "consumption" on some very process. Its not actual consumption its just who has 99% of cpu time. So if the cpu is idling 99% of its cycles it is not calculating.

    If you consider your problem solved it would be very good if you marked the answer which helped you so others can find and use this thread.

    If this didn't solve your problem or you need further assistance please answer in this thread and i would be happy to help.

    kind regards

    F. Grobusch
