lnichols3 0 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Hello, I have a single pc on my network that as of last friday is running 99% cpu. When I get task manager up I notice it's not just one item running high there are several but the one constant at 25 - 30% is erkn.exe. I was unable to uninstall ESET as the local user, I had to log off and back on as a domain admin to uninstall it even though the user has local admin rights. After I uninstall ESET and restarted the system performed normally. So I reinstalled ESET. After reinstall the system jumped right back up to 60 - 75% and has been constant 60 - 95% with no apps open. System Info: Windows 7 Pro Intel® Core i5 CPU M 460 @ 2.53GHz 4gb Ram ESET Endpoint Antivirus 6.4.2014.0 Office 2010 Chrome Any help would be apprectated Leon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESET Moderators Peter Randziak 948 Posted June 30, 2016 ESET Moderators Share Posted June 30, 2016 Hello Leon, can you check if there is no other AV installed on the system? If not you can send me output from ESET Log Collector tool and dump from erkn created via Procdump (run procdump -ma ekrn from an elevated command line, please let ekrn consume CPU for about 5 minutes before creating the dump) for analysis.

lnichols3 0 Posted July 5, 2016 Author Share Posted July 5, 2016 Hello P.R. Sorry with the holiday weekend I am just now getting to read your reply. I verified there was no other AV software installed. I do have the procdump file already where do you want me to send them? Thanks, Leon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
