Windows 10: Fortnite suddenly 100% Cpu utilization?

Hello, everyone,

I played Fortnite last night. There I had about 40 Fps on my laptop. The Gpu was used 100% and the Cpu about 30%. Now we come to my problem. I just started Fortnitre and now only 13 Fps at 100% Cpu and 50% Gpu. How can that be? And how can I solve this?

My hardware:

Intel Core i5-8250u

Amd Radeon 530

:)

 

CPU utilization >100%

I recently upgraded from Windows 8.1 to 10, and discovered a weird problem when opening task manager where CPU utilization was always at 100%. I did a clean install of Windows 10 to make sure it wasn't application specific, but still the same problem.

This problem is very strange because utilization doesn't seem to be tied to a specific process- it just always seems to add up to 100%. Resource monitor actually shows CPU Usage to be in the million%, which is definitely wrong. No performance degradation,
CPU temps are very normal, and even third-party programs such as Speedfan and CoreTemp are reporting negligible CPU usage (1%-2% idle).

I have tried disabling all startup applications, doing sfc /scannow, viewing reliability history, and restarting multiple times. No luck

 

CPU utilization >100%

Hi,

Thank you for being a part of Windows 10.

The issue could be due to some Software/update causing the issue. I would suggest you to press the
Shift key and hold the power button so that it will go to the
recovery options, Select safe mode and boot to the desktop. Once you are able to boot to the desktop, check for the CPU utilization.

Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other issues with Windows in future.
