So I have searched for many solutions to this problem and haven't found one. WMI can take up to 60% of my CPU usage make playing games almost impossible. I have gone through the event viewer and found that event client 1588 is the problem, but I cannot find it in the service of the task manager. It also gave me an event ID of 5858 if that helps. Thank for anyone who attempts to help!

Hi,

Try this:
Start > type Services hit Enter.
Under Services (Local), scroll down until you find the “Windows Management Instrumentation” service and select Restart.
