Modern Unified MsSense.exe and CPU/disk usage on 2012 R2 after March updates
- Aug 10, 2022
I had the same issue after upgrading to the Unified Agent and updating the Sense client to 10.8048.22439.1065. Updating to - KB5005292 (Version 10.8049.22439.1084) seems to have fixed it for me. You can get the updated Sense Client from https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB5005292
and verify that Client has updated by running the following PowerShell command
Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{ProviderName="Microsoft-Windows-Sense" ;ID=1}

ScottMoseley I am still getting this issue on 1084.
The cpu just sits at 15% all day. Is there a full fix for this?- Paul_HuijbregtsOct 06, 2022MicrosoftYou should probably investigate if you need to place some exclusions, depending on what you are observing. https://learn.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/troubleshoot-performance-issues has some guidance that may be useful to you!
