Why is CPU 0 not being utilized? Cinebench and most other programs and games only uses 5 cores. While prime95 uses all 6. Why does this happen?

Cinebench (Number of render threads is set to 6): View: https://imgur.com/CiHvBCx

System specs:
i5-9400f
Asrock B365M Pro4
2x4 GB RAM
1050Ti

Also, setting the processor affinity of a program to only use CPU 0 works fine and CPU 0 gets fully utilized. But if it is set to use CPU 0 + Other cores it will not use CPU 0
 
Solution
Type msconfig in the search bar bottom left. In the opened window go to the boot tab. After that advanced options and make sure that the checkbox for number of processors is not checked. if it is uncheck it and reboot.
