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.

Hello,
- Disable all startup apps in task manager that you do not need or do not need to be started after a restart.
- Check if you have 2 AV's (Microsoft + 3th party) this can cause resources eating during restart
- Check if all latest firmware and Drivers are installed on you device.
