Procesi sustava poput Ntoskrnl.exe mogu usporiti ukupnu izvedbu vašeg računala. Proširuje se kao izvršna datoteka kernela operativnog sustava Windows NT . Ova izvršna datoteka je odgovorna za upravljanje memorijom, upravljanje procesima, izdvajanje hardvera i^{(, )} temeljni je dio operativnog sustava^(System) . Kada otkrijete da proces troši prekomjerne resurse CPU -a i diska u vašem sustavu, možete ih nasilno zatvoriti iz Upravitelja zadataka^{(Task Manager)} . Ali to nije u slučaju Ntoskrnl.exe , budući da bi njihovo nasilno zatvaranje moglo utjecati na područja za koja su odgovorni. Dakle^(Hence) , za rješavanje visoke potrošnje CPU-a^{(High CPU)} ili diskaProblem s Ntoskrnl.exe^{(Ntoskrnl.exe)} , pročitajte ovaj vodič i podijelite ga sa svojim prijateljem koji se suočava s istim problemom.

Kako popraviti Ntoskrnl.exe visoku upotrebu CPU-a u sustavu Windows 10^{(How to Fix Ntoskrnl.exe High CPU Usage on Windows 10)}

Ako smatrate da je vaš sustav vrlo spor nego inače, idite na Upravitelj zadataka^{(Task Manager)} da vidite koja stavka sustava^(System) troši velike CPU resurse. Ako, u slučaju, ustanovite da troši najveće CPU resurse, kliknite ga desnom tipkom miša i odaberite opciju Svojstva^(Properties) . Sada ćete pronaći novu stavku pod nazivom ntoskrnl.exe. U ovom članku prikazali smo korake za popravak visoke potrošnje CPU -a ^(CPU)Ntoskrnl.exe u ^{(Ntoskrnl.exe)}sustavu Windows 10^{(Windows 10)} .

Zašto Ntoskrnl.exe troši puno prostora na disku i CPU resursa?^{(Why Ntoskrnl.exe Consumes a lot of Disk Space & CPU Resources?)}

Najistaknutiji problemi poput ovih mogu se prijaviti zbog curenja memorije iz hardvera i zlonamjernog softvera. Međutim, mnogi od vas bi mogli biti zbunjeni pitanjem, Ntoskrnl.exe upravlja memorijom, ali zašto troši višak memorijskih resursa? Nastavite^(Continue) čitati kako biste saznali zašto?

Slijedi nekoliko mogućih razloga za ovu pogrešku.

• Najčešći razlog koji pokreće problem je nova komprimirana memorija^{(compressed memory)} . Kad god koristite bilo koju aplikaciju ili program u svom sustavu, RAM će se koristiti za povećanje brzine umjesto uobičajene pohrane. Ipak, kada otvorite više aplikacija istovremeno, potrošit će se više RAM-a , a time će i performanse ^(RAM)CPU- a biti usporene.
• Ako se vaš sustav suoči s napadom zlonamjernog softvera ili virusa^{(malware or virus attack)} , CPU troši velike resurse i stoga će vaše računalo biti usporeno. Pokrenite antivirusno skeniranje kako biste sortirali sve napade virusa/zlonamjernog softvera u vašem sustavu.
• Zastarjeli ili nekompatibilni upravljački programi^{(Outdated or incompatible drivers)} u vašem sustavu doprinose istom problemu. Ažurirajte^(Update) ili vratite svoje upravljačke programe u skladu s tim kako biste izbjegli problem.
• Ako su datoteke Ntoskrnl.exe oštećene^{(Ntoskrnl.exe files are corrupt)} , uvijek ćete se susresti s navedenim problemom. To se rijetko događa jer su te datoteke prema zadanim postavkama zaštićene sustavom. Međutim, kada se suočite s problemom, obično nećete raditi u svom sustavu.

Ovaj odjeljak sastavio je popis metoda za rješavanje problema koje bi vam pomogle riješiti problem korištenja CPU -a. ^(CPU)Koraci za rješavanje problema raspoređeni su prema ozbiljnosti i ekstremnim uzrocima. Slijedite ih kako biste postigli najbolje rezultate.

Metoda 1: Koristite plan napajanja visokih performansi^{(Method 1: Use High-Performance Power Plan)}

Fix Ntoskrnl.exe High CPU Usage

The sуstem processеs like Ntoskrnl.exe might ѕlоw down the overall pеrformance of your PC. It is expanded as Windows NT operating system kernel executable. This еxecutable is responsible for memory management, process management, hardware extraction, and it is the fundamental part of the Operating System. When you find a process consuming excessive CPU and disk resources in your system, you can close them forcefully from Task Manager. But this is not in the case of Ntoskrnl.exe, since closing them forcefully might affect the areas they are responsible for. Hence, to address High CPU or disk usage by Ntoskrnl.exe issue, read this guide and share it with your friend facing the same issue.

How to Fix Ntoskrnl.exe High CPU Usage on Windows 10

If you find your system very slow than usual, navigate to Task Manager to see which System item is consuming high CPU resources. If, in case, you have found it consuming the highest CPU resources, then right-click on it and select the Properties option. Now, you will find a new item called ntoskrnl.exe. In this article, we have shown the steps to fix Ntoskrnl.exe high CPU usage on Windows 10.

Why Ntoskrnl.exe Consumes a lot of Disk Space & CPU Resources?

The most prominent issues like these can be reported due to memory leakage from hardware and malware. However, many of you might be confused with a question, Ntoskrnl.exe manages memory, yet why does it consume excess memory resources? Continue reading to learn why?

Following are some possible reasons behind this error.

• The most common reason that triggers the issue is new compressed memory. Whenever you use any application or program in your system, RAM will be used up to increase the speed instead of regular storage. Yet, when you open multiple applications simultaneously, more RAM will be used up, and thus CPU performance will be slowed down.
• If your system faces any malware or virus attack, the CPU consumes high resources, and thus your computer will be slowed down apparently. Run an antivirus scan to sort any virus/malware attacks in your system.
• Outdated or incompatible drivers in your system contribute to the same issue. Update or roll back your drivers accordingly to avoid the problem.
• If the Ntoskrnl.exe files are corrupt, you will face the said problem again and again. This rarely happens since these files are system-protected by default. However, when you face the problem, you will not normally work in your system.

This section has compiled a list of troubleshooting methods that would help you fix the CPU usage issue. The troubleshooting steps are arranged according to the severity and extreme of causes. Follow them to attain the best results.

Method 1: Use High-Performance Power Plan

You can also optimize your computer when you set your settings to a high-performance power plan. These power plans are developed to manage the power settings on portable settings. Follow the below-mentioned instructions to use high-performance power plan settings in your system.

1. Right-click on the Battery icon on the Taskbar and select Power Options.

2. Now, select the High performance option as highlighted in the pic below.

Now you have optimized your system for games and better performance.

Method 2: Delete Temporary Files

When your system has any corrupt Ntoskrnl.exe files, you will encounter Ntoskrnl.exe high CPU usage issues. You can sort out this error by clearing the temporary files in your system. Then, follow the instructions to implement the same.

1. Press the Windows key, type %temp%, and click on Open.

2. Here, select all files and folders by pressing Ctrl + A keys together and then right-click on the selected files.

3. Select the Delete option to remove all the temporary files.

4. Finally, go to Desktop and right-click on Recycle Bin. Select Empty Recycle Bin option to permanently delete the data from your Windows PC.

Method 5: Perform Disk Cleanup

Disk Cleanup is like Recycle Bin. The data deleted through Disk Cleanup are not permanently deleted from the system and remain available on your hard drive. You may recover the files whenever needed.

1. In the Windows search bar, type Disk Cleanup and click on Run as administrator, as highlighted below.

2. You will be asked to Select the drive you want to clean up. Here, we have selected C: drive. Click on OK to proceed.

5. Once the scanning is complete, again check the boxes for all the chosen items and click on OK.

6. Finally, click on the Delete Files button in the confirmation prompt.

7. Restart your PC. To clean up additional space, read 10 Ways to Free up Hard Disk Space.

Method 6: Disable SuperFetch (SysMain)

The startup time for applications and Windows is improved by a built-in feature called SysMain (formerly SuperFetch). But programs of the system are not benefited from this feature. Instead, the background activities are increased, and the performing speed of your system will be reduced relatively. These Windows services will eat your CPU resources, and it is often recommended to disable SuperFetch in your system.

1. Launch the Run dialog box by holding Windows + R keys together.
