    Msedgewebview2.exe Malfunction

    Hello, I have updated my computer today and I have seen that in the task manager it shows that the windows widgets are consuming 31% of the CPU power.

    This is the msedgewebview2.exe program. I've tried disabling it from the Registry Editor, but I can't find the TaskbarDa. I tried reformatting the computer and that was fine until the update was reinstalled.

    I have Windows 11.

    Thanks a lot.

    I had the same issue.

    Between 4 and 5% used by msedgewebview2.exe even with widgets disabled.

    my 5900x was at 73°c (sometimes near 80°c)

    I switched the Windows display language from French (France) to English (United States) then logged out and logged in.

    Now it's OK even with widgets enabled.

    Temperature is normal 33/34°c

    Thank you Nikolay for this work around
