Since installing the Windows 10 Anniversary update, booting has been slow and the PC is sluggish for a while. As soon as I could get Task Manager open I saw C: had 100% utilisation. I ran Resource Monitor and saw that MsMpEng apparently had a long list of my installed programs running at the...

Did a clean install from recovery disks to new drive. Seems to be ok, so first thing I tried to do is run Windows Update, but it just runs and runs and runs. Probably 5 hours now. Taskmgr shows svchost running an almost constant 25%, pretty much nothing else using any CPU. Is it normal for...

I can stand no more windoes defender automated schedules. My laptop CPU rockets to 70% for half and hour and the lappy gets boiling. I have attempted to disable each entry in task scheduler however this will not stop defender to run randomly How can I stop this? PS - I want to keep real time...

Slow pages lose users: research from Bing and Google indicates that delays as small as half a second can impact business metrics. To build fast sites, developers need powerful tools to analyze the performance of their sites and debug issues. Link Removed are a great start and the primary tools...

I was using my computer like normal and everything was fine, couldn't connect to a friend's WiFi so I restarted my computer. It took over 30 minutes to boot back up, with half that time being on my desktop loading applications. Everything that I tried to click was being very slow. I Ctrl-Alt-Del...

Hi all, Anyone noticed when updating manually that there's a complete lack of information? For example it takes a while to compile a list of available updates for your machine, and while it's doing it you don't really get any feedback, of course if you know what to look for you can see the...

In the Control Panel Action Center I have Opted out of participating in the CEIP program (don't ever remember opting in). Here's what I see: Task scheduler Customer Experience Improvement Program (3 tasks) Consolidator (%SystemRoot%\System32\wsqmcons.exe) KernelCeipTask (Custom Handler)...

Anyone know of a program that can log when a particular process starts, finishes, what parameters are passed, cpu usage, etc. Process Explorer gives me that info but I have to be watching it to see the process in question. I have a rundll process that runs sometime in the morning that is using...

It's a simple problem, but it makes it nearly impossible to take notes in class on my laptop. Every time I open my laptop and it wakes from sleep mode, there are a few processes that will spend the first 3-5 minutes hogging the CPU and disk like crazy, making everything from Chrome to Word slow...

As the title explains my computer has been randomly going unresponsive and I cannot narrow down what the problem is, my CPU usage is always below 30% at the time most of the time. I also was suggested to look towards a windows forum after I cancelled out the idea of it being malware after I...

i recently began using win 7 64 ultimate sp1 from win xp sp3 and one of the first things i noticed is that if i don't move the mouse for about 1-2 minutes the red led on my computer flashes all the time! and there's sound like the harddisks are being used.. even now as i write it's doing this...

When I'm on google chrome and i'm watching a youtube video, I often run into a problem where my audio is being distorted because the cpu usage is so high. Also, when i'm in a skype call, the people on the other end of the call say that my microphone starts stuttering randomly. I don't know if...
