Computer randomly slowing down
Yesterday, at one point, my Internet connection suddenly became extremely slow, to the point where I was unable to load any pages in Chrome. A few minutes later, the issue resolved itself. I saw in Task Manager that System was using a significant percentage of the CPU during that time, while the memory and disk usage seemed normal. Today, the same thing happened again, but this time I noticed Task Manager kept visually freezing, and hung when I tried to close it. I had never had anything like this happen until yesterday (I've had this computer for 10 months now). Why is this happening?
Specs:
Windows 10 1803 build 17134.765 (64-bit)
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7500U CPU @ 2.70 GHz 2.90 GHz
