SOLVED: To anyone who may read this, the issue was my desktop wallpaper slideshow changing every minute....crazy world....

Just narrowed it down to the task: CreateObjectTask. What is this?

I followed steps online for a clean boot to determine any conflicting programs, so when I mean bare Windows I meant whatever that boot environment was. I don't have any utilities for CPU, GPU, or MOBO. I used them in the past but Gigabyte has SUPER clunky software and when I did a fresh install...

Very good question... my email app does fetch often, however I'm currently on my laptop and not experiencing issues related to that, worth a try on my desktop though.

I had procmon running to check, definitely going to check other background apps, it's clearly something not playing nicely. I wonder exactly which program it is, if it is a program, because it still persisted after doing a clean boot...

Agreed, had thought it was a program conflicting or causing issues, however when I did a clean boot without any other services running aside from the bare Windows ones, I still had the issue. Should I attempt to just uninstall certain programs and see which is a possible culprit? I was using...

Makes me think I could have some kind of mining virus, although why the 4-5 scanners I use wouldn't pick that up, I don't know.

MOBO battery unfortunately was NOT the issue... I really have no idea how else to troubleshoot. I don't think the PSU is defective. Everything is powered up well. Hard drives are seen. GPU and MOBO receiving power. As is everything else. I don't have the time change issue anymore however. I...
