CPU goes to 100% even just after restart

The CPU goes to 100% and the fan spins very fast. This happens from time to time even the laptop just restarted and no program was opened.

    If your CPU hits 100% usage after a restart with no apps open, it could be due to background tasks like Windows updates or malware. Check Task Manager to identify the process causing the spike and run a malware scan to rule out security issues.
