The CPU clock speed is stuck at 4941 and the temperature is rising. However, in World of Warcraft i have lags and is not stable. These problems occurred when I tried to increase the CPU power and set the overclocking to a higher power. Now I can't get the overclocking back to normal.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

Is your power plan set to balanced or performance mode?
 
Sorry for the late reply. This problem has not happened to me and is for my friend. And since he could not register on your website, I mentioned the problem and had to wait for him to tell me his system specifications.

Processor and rest of hardware will do nothing OS and software are not asking for.
It's all up to your Windows, "when no app is open" and that's supposed to be idle state but that doesn't mean windows are not running something in the background. Real idle state is when CPU load is 1% or less. Check your Task Manager.
Which SW are you using to monitor CPU ? Some show only core with highest frequency which looks like whole CPU is running at that "speed". Normally when in true idle state only one or 2 cores would run at low frequency while others should be in sleep mode. Under any load from windows one core would boost higher and under more other cores are supposed to come online and boost (go to higher frequency) one by one as required.
Use Ryzen Master program in Advanced view for details.
