Re: WMI provider host sometimes suddenly take 100% CPU and back to as normal after few seconds
I met this problem in all the games that I recently played, include Genshin Impact, Rainbow 6 Siege, GTA5, World of Tanks. I think it might be either a system error or a hardware error. I have bought a new SSD and the problem has gone down a lot, but sometimes it still happens.2.5KViews0likes0CommentsWMI provider host sometimes suddenly take 100% CPU and back to as normal after few seconds
Recently when playing games, the game sometimes suddenly got stuck and after a few seconds, usually 5-10 seconds, it went back to normally running. I monitored the Task Manager and found that it was the WMI Provider Host that suddenly took almost 100% cpu usage and at that time, everything on my computer got stuck. And when after a few seconds that it went back to normal usage like 5-10%, the computer also back to work as nothing had happened. I check the event log and found several 5858 errors, 0x80041032, like https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/system-management-components/wmi-activity-event-5858-logged-with-resultcode-0x80041032. Every sudden-100%-cpu-use came with 5858 errors as I talked above, while some 5858 errors had no impact to the cpu and computer performance. What causes the sudden-100%-cpu-use of WMI? How to fix it?2.7KViews0likes3Comments
