  2. Java usage to high while playing minecraft/related


    Java usage is to high while playing games using java (Mostly Minecraft)

    At idle java uses only using about 1-2% CPU usage, but when it comes to playing minecraft it increases to 15%-50%.

    When i decrease the amount of FPS Minecraft makes the lower the percentage goes..

    Here's a example of me playing minecraft:

    Above shows applications like:
    OBS- Open Broadcast Software

    and even

    Google Chrome has to many open..

    Things ive done:
    Reinstalled Java
    Cleared Java Cache
    Updated Nvidia Driver
    ADWCLEANER- Found no malware

    Please its been like this for a week now ! And nobody has a fix for it

    To add to what the two above me posted, Minecraft requires Java (though there is a way to get around it, I believe). While you're playing Minecraft, Java CPU usage WILL definitely spike up depending on how active you are in the game. And to emphasize, THIS IS NORMAL.

    Or maybe you need to check with the developers of Minecraft for a possible 'memory leak' with the game. Also, this is NOT the Minecraft support forum.

    Minecraft java and bedrock edition online purchase.

    Hi,Samar ! I'm Luis, a fellow Microsoft Community Member . Thanks for reaching us out here.

    If you have bought Minecraft before, you’re now getting the other edition for free. Woot! Follow these steps to redeem it:

    Go to the Microsoft Store listing for Minecraft: Java & Bedrock for PC.

    https://aka.ms/JavaBedrockEdition

    Sign-in to the Microsoft Store with your Microsoft account.

    Once you’re signed in, instead of a “Buy” button you should see a button that says “Get.” Click this button – and now you own both editions!

    HOW DO I RUN OR PLAY EITHER VERSION OF MINECRAFT?

    Once you’ve completed the steps above, including logging into the Microsoft Store, you can now download the Minecraft Launcher.

    To play Minecraft: Java Edition, download and install the correct launcher for your operating system. Sign into the Launcher using your Microsoft account, and you will be able to run Java Edition.
