Answer 1

Hi Ron, it can be also a RAM issue as it is consuming very high, for us to further check if this is a RAM issue, kindly follow the steps below:

Method 1. Do clean boot:

A “clean boot” starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs, so that you can determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program.

• In the search box on the taskbar, type msconfig and select System Configuration from the results.
• On the Services tab of System Configuration, select Hide all Microsoft services, and then select Disable all.
• On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select Open Task Manager.
• Under Startup in Task Manager, for each startup item, select the item and then select Disable.
• Close Task Manager.
• On the Startup tab of System Configuration, select OK. When you restart the computer, it's in a clean boot environment.

Method 2. Run memory diagnostic tool: The memory diagnostic tool is a RAM test to check if there are any RAM issues.

• Press Windows key + R then type in mdsched.exe hit OK then restart the device.

Note: If the issue persists, kindly upload and share the event logs so that we can further check the root cause of the issue.

I understand the issue you have, there is nothing to worry I am here to help, getting updates should optimize the PC performance since the PC is getting slower, which means there are third-party services that may interrupt the process or a miscalibrated drivers, in addition, can you please check the System logs on the PC so that we can further examine what is the root cause of the issue?
