Antimalware Service Executable High RAM Usage

[EddieJackson004]

I've Advance SystemCare 8.2 Pro installed, right after the startup, I see that the ram usage is 70%+ .....when I open the task manager, I see that the Antimalware Service Executable is eating up my ram and sometimes used up to 100% CPU too....does ASC had a conflict with Windows Defender? I tried google to find a solution, but seems like nothing work for me....please somebody help me fix this problem

Windows Defender automatically turns itself off if a proper antivirus solution is installed. That should be enough to tell you the issue is certainly that "fake" antivirus (not really fake, but awfully sketchy company behind it). Try uninstalling the software and see if the issue is gone.

Do as basroil said but if the issue still doesn't go away, trying running a Malwarebytes scan (if it's dodgy it should fix it). Links to the website is below:

- Malwarebytes (https://www.malwarebytes.org/antimalware/)

That's usually a side effect of not having all your updates completed. It should sort itself out once you have all your updates installed (might take some time)

To be honest, this solution worked for me. So instead of writing a boring reply I am pointing to the article which explains the procedure.
