As the title suggests the CPU usage is at 100% constantly, not sure how it arose it just seemed that after installing windows updates the CPU usage was staying at 100%. Tried to do a system restore and remove the update though it is still at this usage. Its making it so the computer is essentially unusable since it takes about 1 minute for anything to load. Checking the processes tab has not helped at all, nothing in there is out of the ordinary. I've tried running a full system scan, it found nothing.

Wondering if anyone has any suggestions of what I can attempt to try and solve this. Only other thing that I can really think of mentioning is that when in safe mode the CPU is normal.

Many Thanks
 

Reinstalled windows and it seems it may be ok now, will get back to you if the problem persists. If it happens again after installing windows updates at least I can take a guess as to what is causing it.
