Windows 10: Why the hell should WMI provider host use up more than 50% of my cpu at IDLE

My poor i3 already struggles, but when a windows program legit makes it 100% at idle, its nearly unusable.

WMI Host Provider Regularly Using Up CPU

Thanks Andre!! This solved my WMI Host problem. My CPU went back again to 2, 3 o 4% when idle and the Temperature of my CPU and Cores was reduced to Normal levels 45 to 52 degrees C. Thanks again.... Aaron...

 

WMI Host Provider Regularly Using Up CPU

Hi,

On my new laptop, about every ten minutes, WMI Host Provider will suddenly start using about 20-30% of my CPU. It lasts for about a minute and then stops. This can be annoying as it happens even when the laptop is on idle. There was a post about this earlier
and the solution for that person seemed to be going to event viewer and checking the WMI Host Provider operational logs for errors. I followed the same steps, but during and after the spikes in CPU usage, no errors appear to indicate that there is some program
causing the CPU usage.

Thanks.
