[QUOTE="Zexx, post: 718132, member: 20154"] No, it is not just related to Google Chrome. Edge, League, and other processes spike too. Also, the spike happens when the CPU and Memory are at regular levels. All of these processes normally do not cause these issues - and if they do (for example when I have five Chrome windows with 20 PDF tabs open in each), then they affect only themselves and proceed to shutdown only themselves. The lag that I refer to affects the computer itself - my mouse moves like a snail for 3-5 minutes, and it's sporadic. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In regards to your instructions; I am unsure as to what VirusTotal is. However, I tried searching for that pathway, and the comp can't find it. The closest thing that I can find is that This PC> OS(C: )> Users > Default.migrated. Under this last folder, there are two seperate folders for AppData and Roaming. [B]AppData [/B]leads to [B]Local [/B]then [B]Microsoft [/B]then [B]Windows. [/B]All of these are folders, and all are empty [B]Roaming[/B] leads to [B]Intel [/B]> [B]Wireless [/B]> [B]Settings[/B], and like above, all are empty [/QUOTE]
