Kaspersky Lab Launcher uses more than 20% of CPU when laptop is idle!

[A.Rasool Shukralla]

For some reason, Kaspersky Lab Launcher is using too much of my laptop's CPU! more than 20% of all time whether I am doing something or not. Is this the norm here? if this is the case then this is truly inefficient tool to use.

Ok, I moved this thread to the proper section.

 

Check if there are Windows Updates remaining in Your system to be installed, if so, then reboot the system to be applied.

 

Also, do You have any other security application installed in the system?

 

Additionally, check in the Windows taskbar K icon if there is a background scan running...

 

In which country region are You? there is a new K. line of home products 21.14, with Your KIS licence You would be able to migrate to K. Standard.
