Hi Dalchina, thanks for your help to date, I managed to sort the CPU issue which was being caused by a third party add on to the game I no longer use.

But I now have another problem, I have had...

Hi yes after checking winver this is exactly what has happened, am I still to do the other things you requested?

Hi sure, I went to post #3 on this link Windows 10 Recovery Tools - Bootable Rescue Disk - Windows 10 Forums and selected the link titled Download Official MS Windows & MS Office ISO's MICROSOFT ISO...

Have attached quite a few screens etc I am not sure why you think I am spamming this forum?

I re-installed via an Iso because I was advised to on here, seems obvious I would come back for advice...

Windows 10 Recovery Tools -...

Ran task manager and when doing something this game is taking my CPU usage up to nearly 100% that never happened before

Hi, I said no when that came up

Since I downloaded this ISO as advised my laptop is running incredibly slow during a game I played often beforehand without any issues.

I have a powerful machine that’s more than equipped to play...

I am downloading this now, I don't really have anything worth backing up anyway so happy to do a reinstall.

I believe I have found the issue here, and it is that my registry permissions have somehow changed as seen below. The issue is I don't know how to change these permissions??
