BAR152 0 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 A good 2021 to all of you! Since 1-2 days I suddenly have a problem, the WIN10 PC is extremely slow. E.g. starting a browser session normally was instantaneous but now takes 40 sec. Windows Task Manager shows 100% CPU usage, which is for over 99% by ESET Service (2), see attachment. I did not start any action with ESET, e.g. there is no virus scan running. Any suggestions what I can do to get back to normal CPU usage? Thanks in advance for your help!

BAR152 0 Posted January 2, 2021 Author Share Posted January 2, 2021 I had postponed an ESET update because I was not sure if that update would still be covered by my active license. As a last thing I could think of, I did the update and luckily it is still covered by the active license. After restart the problem has disappeared😃. I can only hope it stays like that.

Most Valued Members Nightowl 183 Posted January 3, 2021 Most Valued Members Share Posted January 3, 2021 Your license will cover the product upgrades that ESET provides , as long as it's still active , you will be able to download update and product upgrades ESET Staff will probably request logs to determine the reason for this spike, but as a restart has fixed it probably something got stuck.

tomba4 0 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Google directed me here as I have the exact same problem for last couple of months. Am I really the only one still seeing this issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 4,609 Posted February 11, 2021 Administrators Share Posted February 11, 2021 When the issue occurs, please enable advanced operating system logging in the advanced setup -> tools -> diagnostics, leave it logging for 2-3 minutes and then disable it. Then click "Create" in the Diagnostics section of the advanced setup to generate an ekrn dump. Next collect logs with ESET Log Collector, upload the generated archive to a safe location and drop me a personal message with a download link.

Administrators Marcos 4,609 Posted May 13, 2021 Administrators Share Posted May 13, 2021 Does it work if you choose to collect original unfiltered binary logs? If necessary, deselect the firewall log so that it won't be collected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
