Windows 10: Widgets eating a bunch of cpu and not loading

I noticed that the fans on my computer seemed to be working a lot more than usual. After checking cpu-usage, Windows widgets as eating 25% of my cpu. I think i have a 4-core cpu so the widgets just straight up annexed a core of my cpu. And on top of that, they aren't actually working. I've tried the typical things, toggling on and off in taskbar settings, checking that I'm logged in to my Microsoft account, I have Edge as the only browser. What else can I do?Toggling widgets off in taskbar only hides the button and doesn't deactivate widgets, can I deactivate widgets somehow?

'System and compressed memory' on ASUS G75VY notebook load CPU always on 16%

thank you for your reply!

here what I did:

1. disabled non-microsoft services, disabled all applications in startup list

result: after restart "system and compressed memory" still gain 17% CPU

2. ran PC into safe mode ( just to see what happens )

result: CPU load is 0% for "system and compressed memory"

3. ran PC in normal mode

result: CPU load is 0% for "system and compressed memory"

as we can see from step 1, the problem probably is not in applications ?

what would you suggest in this case ?

looking forward for your answer

 

Weird floating Youtube widget, how to stop it?

Thanks for the suggestion, I had checked that. This is Windows doing this. I don't think a chrome extension could know the CPU usage, and it's definitely (proven now) that it was only happening during > 95% cpu usage. It was like Windows was thinking "I can't guarantee I can reliably render these youtube videos while the CPU is being slammed so much". It's an admirable thing that it cares about my entertainment experience, but I'd rather it limited the CPU hog task(s) to help me, rather than randomly pausing the video instead and offering me a control widget.
