    Windows Explorer randomly jumps to 100% gpu for a few seconds, ruins computer fps


    I have a RTX 3070 and recently windows explorer will randomly spike up to 100% gpu usage for a few seconds for seemingly no reason, this happens when im doing something not demanding like watching netflix, or playing something like fortnite, and it basically lowers my fps to something like 5-15 everything is choppy including me just moving my mouse around on my desktop, im assuming to throttle power??? but every fix for this is basically just telling me to go back to older drivers, which I have tried and hasn't worked. This started happening I think about 3 days ago and its very inconsistent
