I have a new build of server 2022. I am also using Crashplan Pro and it calls powercfg /requests. That call results in powercfg tying up one logical processor 100%. When I try the same command as Administrator from the command prompt it also hangs. powercfg /systempowerreport results in unexpected error (0x2) The system cannot find the file specified. energy report produces the following:

CPU Utilization:Processor utilization is high

The average processor utilization during the trace was high. The system will consume less power when the average processor utilization is very low. Review processor utilization for individual processes to determine which applications and services contribute the most to total processor utilization.

Average Utilization (%) 100.00

Also powercfg /systempowerreport returns an unexpected error (0x2) the system cannot find the file specified.

I found one other person having trouble with powercfg /requests on another forum. he is also running Server 2022 and Crashplan. I have tried safe boot and get the same thing. Any ideas?
