Google chrome using 25% of cpu on system startup

[fogolol098]

So when i turn on my pc, i noticed that it was running slower, heating up a bit more and getting lower fps on cpu intensive games. Then i opened task manager to see what was using my cpu.
It turned out to be chrome (or something disguised as chrome) using 25% of my cpu at all times.
That process is there when the system boots up without even opening chrome itself.
I can easily kill the process but often forget about it and then wonder why the pc is lagging.
Also i don't think it is ACTUAL chrome because:
1- It's there when system starts.

2-It's always there

3-If i kill the process while chrome is open, chrome doesn't get affected.

I suspect it being some kind of virus disguising itself as chrome but i don't know how to remove this.

Have you scanned for malware/viruses lately? What apps are you using for anti-malware/anti-virus?

Have you updated Chrome? Even with 14 Chrome add-ons I only use about 7% of my CPU and 12% of my RAM.

I did a full scan with windows defender, took me 1 and half hour to complete and it didn't find anything whatsoever
If the antivirus is too weak, Which one will you recommend?

chrome is updated.
If i kill that process, chrome won't use much cpu power either

Download and run Malwarebytes. Remove all it finds.

It worked. It did remove the problem along with 40 other threats.
One problem is: It deleted a program i use which is advanced system care. But nother than that it'd a pretty good antivirus
which i'll begin using.

What "advanced system care" are you using? There are many such apps on the 'Net that are pure junk (malware). From where did you get it?

I got it from the official iobit website. It's a trustworthy program but you have to pay for all the features. It's kinda like ccleaner but with more features

His CPU has 4 threads each of those threads is equal to 25% of total CPU utilization,when a thread crashes or otherwise bugs out it can be running at 100% all day long ,one full thread = 25% of total,it happens to me quite often that I see such threads and I just kill them with process hacker without google crashing.
