    CPU running high due to NVIDIA container process

    Win 10 Pro x64 1709 single user desktop, i7-4790K, 32 GB ram, plenty of SSD/HDD. For the first time in memory, there's a blue circle constantly running alongside the mouse cursor this morning, which got me to check CPU usage. I've identified what's causing it, the NVIDIA LocalSystem Container process, which was updated last night (drivers and sound). Is that process necessary? I don't play games and haven't seen any problems since disabling it in Autoruns. With it, CPU in Task Mgr shows in the 30% range; without it, CPU usage is down around 2-5%. Any thoughts, suggestions?

    What is the Container folder and why is it missing?

    They have 5 steps listed? Can you not get the files they mention in step 5? I can't tell if Containers is the name of a Windows file or just an internal reference or what.

    Why is Nvidia Container using so much of my CPU

    Windows 10 CPU usage 100% when Nvidia GPU enabled

    I've had the same problem, and have exactly the same GPU model. I was able to set the drivers back to factory default, but any update I've tried (including the most recent) causes the massive cpu usage. I've contacted tech support for both Nvidia and Asus,
    and followed all the steps they suggested, with no luck.
