Issue DetailsWhen you open Task Manager, you see multiple instances of svchost.exe. svchost runs multiple instances of itself for the different programs running on your system; as many as 5 or more can run at a time. This can, in some cases, cause a CPU spike.
Recreate IssuePrograms that are running in the background of your computer take up your system's resources, which include CPU and Memory. These processes can really take a toll on a system, and sometimes it is best to end the resource to free up CPU or memory so other applications can continue to run, or close out properly.
