    Windows 10 update issue causing CPU throttle


    I've had an issue with my CPU being throttled since the Windows update around mid January.My PC is pretty new, built it mid December.Everything worked fine until I updated my Windows. I noticed my CPU clock was being capped at 0.37ghz. After turning off thermal throttling in my bios settings it goes up to 0.78ghz.Why do I think its a Windows update issue? Because everytime I uninstall the Windows update, everything goes back to normal. But every 2 weeks or so Windows somehow automatically updates itself despite me turning off auto updates. So I have to keep uninstalling.Well now, there is a ve

    Win10 CPU Throttling

    Win10 appears to throttle the CPU down when it gets too hot. This is probably a good thing (I figure it prevents the CPU from melting down). It seems, though, that Win10 doesn't seem to recognize when the CPU has cooled back down, so the CPU remains in
    a throttled-down mode indefinitely. I haven't figured out a way to reliably get Win10 to reset the throttling. As a work around, I have downloaded ThrottleStop which allows me to override Win10's behavior. Of course, I now have to manually watch the temperature
    to ensure that the CPU doesn't overhead, but it's better than having an unusable CPU. Is anyone aware of a solution to reset Win10 throttling so that I don't have to use a third-party product to do it? Better yet, has Microsoft acknowledged the issue and
    provided any guidance on when this issue might be corrected?

    In case it matters, I am using a Dell Laptop E6410 with an Intel Core i7 M 640 CPU.

  3. New install Windows 10 (issue solved)

    It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

    Heres a couple examples:

    Here

    It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

    I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP

    Windows 10 update issue causing CPU throttle

    Prevent Cpu throttle on Battery

    Hello,

    I recently upgraded my Laptop by adding an SSD with windows 10 pro.

    Now I noticed the computer throttles the cpu frequency whenever I'm on battery even on high performance profile.
    (In task manager I can see cpu frequency instantly dropping from 2.3-2.5 to 1.2 GHz as soone as I unplug the AC adapter).

    The issue is not bios related and It does not happen on Ubuntu nor window 7( I mesured and the cpu frequency does not change when I unplug).

    I tried the following:
    - High performance profile.
    - increased "minimum processor state" in power plan settings to 60% (https://i2.wp.com/www.techconsumergu...ng?w=452&ssl=1)
    - Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Power Throttling Settings and I Enabled the "turn off power throttling"


    Still windows 10 throttles whenever I'm on battery.

    Can someone suggest a solution for this?

    Thanks in advance
