    High CPU/RAM usage from Windows Update


    Hi everyone, I'm not sure when this all started If I were to guess it was when I downloaded the Creators update for Windows 10. I'm basically having this issue where Windows Orchestrator service/Windows Update Is using up to 50% of my CPU and A lot of RAM. I'm not really sure how to approach this, I've tried researching different things and no luck. I would appreciate any help that can be Given thank you.

    Hi, you could have a look at this and see if it helps:
    Reset Windows Update in Windows 10 Windows 10 Windows Update Activation Tutorials

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...ate-components

    Your Update History might show some failing update.

    It could also be worth doing a basic disk check e.g.
    Hard Disk Sentinel (trial) (includes SSDs); chkdsk c: /F - from an admin command prompt

    Hi apologies for the late response, I've ran the .Bat file and reset windows update components the issue appears to have went away! Thank you for the help, I'm surprised I didn't figure that one out on my own.
