CPU Usage at 50% when Idle?

Deadrogue

ok then go to start menu typ in services and go to component sevices then to -----> services (local) find lsm and go in to that if it is there then startup type disabled.

It was an application running in my Appdata folder.... it shouldn't have been there because I'm sure the only lsm.exe is in the Sys32 folder right?

I'm pretty sure its a fake lsm.... I have one in my sys32 also.

 

Edit: I also found what you typed up in the system32 application. Most likely it was a rogue file that found its way into my AppData folder which doesn't show up when you search it in the startup.

Could be a malware/virus. Do a anti virus scan of some sort and also scan using Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. I had a fake processes before that turned out to be a malware that got removed thx to Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. Also i would recommend doing the scan in safe mode.
