Hello, I wanted to get the CPU utilization percentage using Python or PowerShell. Online resources provide me a decimal number or percentage which does not match the Task Manager number.

Could someone please provide me a code snippet of what I should have in my code.

Just to Clarify, I am specifically looking for the value in Task manager > Performance> CPU > Utilization.

Windows 10 Hardware Performance
Windows 10 Hardware Performance
Windows 10: A Microsoft operating system that runs on personal computers and tablets.Hardware Performance: Delivering / providing hardware or hardware systems or adjusting / adapting hardware or hardware systems.

    Hello, I found the answer after investigating further on stack overflow. I have a PowerShell command that will allow users to view CPU utilization in real time.

    typeperf "\Processor Information(_Total)% Processor Utility"

    This can be called in Python as well.
