High CPU usage in Windows 11 usually means a process is using more CPU cycles than it should. It could be due to excessive background apps, pending Windows updates, corrupted system files, or high-resource processes like antivirus scans and indexers. Fixes for High CPU Usage (Windows 11) Restart Your PC: This is the quickest way to clear stuck processes and memory. Use Task Manager: Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc, find processes with high CPU usage, right-click them, and select "End task". Disable Startup Apps: In Task Manager, go to the "Startup apps" tab, right-click unnecessary apps, and select "Disable". Update Windows & Drivers: Go to Settings > Windows Update to ensure you have the latest performance patches. Check Power Settings: Search for "Choose a power plan" in the Control Panel, and select "Balanced" or "High Performance". Scan for Malware: Run a full scan with Windows Defender, as viruses can cause high CPU usage. Disable SysMain (Superfetch): Search for "Services," find "SysMain," right-click to stop it, which can reduce background resource usage. Disable High Precision Event Timer: In Device Manager, find "High precision event timer" under System Devices, right-click, and disable it @followers #HighCPU #Windows11 #windows10 #technology #techtips #tech #howto #TechGuide #computer #pc #100cpu

Mounting a DVD player in Linux Should be simple enough to remember, but brain says no. So here’s a reminder for me and if you need it, also for you. I need a DVD player mounted to /home/dvd so I can copy its contents of said DVD to /home/snorlax . It seems quite usual that a DVD is mounted to /dev/sr0 mkdir /home/dvd mount /dev/sr0 /home/dvd/ cd /home/dvd cp -vr * /home/snorlax Done.
