Microsoft Software Protection Platform Service, Sppsvc.exe, uses too much cpu, often going up to above 50-55%. This happens in very frequent bursts that will last for about 20mins and will severely slow down my pc, often even causing other apps to freeze.
I have windows10, no kms, no pirate program versions-activators.
I have already tried EVERYTHING:
-Checked that my system is fully updated
-Scanned for malware using 4 different programs
-Used system maintenance troubleshooter
-Run a clean boot & high cpu problem still persisted.
-run a system file checker.
-and, as a last resort, I reset my system choosing to remove all my files and apps, and sppsvc still used the same cpu before i added any of my previous files or programs.
I have resorted to disabling sppsvc using the registry editor and scheduled tasks so that I can work. (I have 'go to settings to activate windows' watermark on my desktop)
I should not have to do this to be able to work, and, since I have tried all of the above, I cannot think of anything else it might be appart from a glitch in the sppsvc program released by ms itself.
Any suggestions? Or any planned future updates by ms that will address this issue please?
