jon3s115 0 Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 Just now, for about 2 minutes ESET Services was running at 100% CPU usage and damn near crashed my PC with how absolutely slow it began to run with the apps I had open at the time. What the heck was it and how I can get this app to NEVER do that again??? I've had this security program installed for YEARS and this is the first it's done this. I even tried stopping the process in Task Manager and it told me "Access Denied" even though the PC account is Administrator? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon3s115 0 Posted October 19 Author Share Posted October 19 Not sure, no updates were being done or anything... in fact I was in a Discord call when suddenly the whole system went slow. Pulled up Task Manager and saw it was 100% CPU and was not able to be terminated despite my account being the sole account on my PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afterwards delete "C:\ProgramData\ESET\ESET Security\logs\epfwlog.dat" in safe mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
