Windows 10: Web Account Manager over 70+ after update

I start up Minecraft and the whole computer locked up because Web Account Manager used over 70% of the cpu, consistently use 80%, the computer locked up so badly to the point that conrtol-alt-delete wont work and have to force shut down it multiple times


I even let it runs at the title screen(have a huge lag ever few seconds). when it stop, every interaction caused a massive spike in the usage, from going the menu, in a world(massive input lag) and multiple lock ups, i can't even do anything.

Service Host: Web Account Manager using 70+% of CPU

I noticed that the fan on my laptop (Thinkpad Yoga X1) running Windows 10 was running at full speed, which was draining the battery quickly. At the same time noticed a sharp drop off in performance on the machine. (I was waiting for the applications to
catch up with the keystrokes, etc.)

I the looked at the task manager and noticed a process called Service Host:Web Account Manager using most of the CPU capacity. See below.

If I stop the process, the fan slows down, the applications and internet browser return to their normal self. But, when I restart the machine, this Web Account Manager returns along with the degraded performance. Do I need this process, and if not, can
I disable it? Or, it this situation a result of something else going on. (This started back after a recent update I did. I tried to restore, but it wasn't successful.)

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.
