    WMI Provider Host is eating all of my CPU.


    The WMI Provider Host is taking up virtually all of my CPU, and according to the Task manager my CPU is constantly maxed at 99% and 95% of the time it is the WMI Provider Host.

    I have attempted to follow several tips online of how to fix it, even Microsoft's solution. But nothing has worked. my only last resort i can think of and id rather it be a very last resort is to wipe all of my drives and reinstall Win 10.

    :)
