A new update for Windows 10 released at the end of August has caused performance issues for many users due to high CPU usage.<\/p>\n
According to a report by Windows Latest<\/strong><\/a>, users who downloaded the Windows 10 KB4512941 update noticed that the operating system was using 30-40% of their CPU in the background.<\/p>\n This resulted in greatly reduced performance across many systems, and users quickly narrowed down the problem to a Cortana-related process named “SearchUI.exe”.<\/p>\n Some users found that disabling the “BingSearchEnabled” key in their registry resolved the problem, although a simpler option would be to simply uninstall the update.<\/p>\n This can be done by navigating to the “Update & Security” menu under Settings, selecting “View update history”, and selecting “Uninstall updates” on the next screen.<\/p>\n A new update for Windows 10 released at the end of August has caused performance issues for many users due to high CPU usage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":341028,"featured_media":174478,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[28218,123,60745,26970],"class_list":["post-318409","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-software","tag-cpu","tag-microsoft","tag-performance-issues","tag-windows-10"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/318409"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/341028"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=318409"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/318409\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/174478"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=318409"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=318409"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=318409"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Now read: Big changes coming to Skype<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
