2 Usage Problems

[AnnaTheKitty]

1. When I have Chrome upen for some reason when I go to my Task Manager it says that Chrome is using a lot of my power usage "Very High".
As well as a lot of my CPU(66%) for some reason which I don't understand why. Are there any settings I can change to fix this?

2. Also there is another problem I am seeing that is using a lot of my GPU...
They are called "Client Server Runtime Process" and "Desktop Window Manager"
Can you tell me what they do and if there is a way to disable them?

Okay - first, Chrome is notorious for high CPU and RAM usage. 

- All that a high Power usage means is that a process has high CPU usage, and will therefore proportionately consume more power.  Higher CPU usage -> Higher power usage.  Fact of physics.

 

Second: Client Server Runtime Process and Desktop Window Manager are integral parts of Windows - you wouldn't want to disable them.

- After some quick googling, I found that Client Server Runtime Process, according to HowToGeek:

[Client Server Runtime Process] this process is responsible for a few critical system functions in the background.

 

- Desktop Window Manager is responsible for making Windows look pretty.  If you disable it, you'll be transported all the way back to 2001 with no transparency effects or pretty reflections.  I would highly recommend leaving DWM running.

 

Good luck
