    Hello,
    it's a normal Windows 10 process if it’s using too much of your CPU, check if your version of Windows 10 is up to date. To check that, go to this page, click on Update now, this will start the download of the Microsoft tool. You just need to open it, and it will allow you to update Windows 10 to the latest version and inform you if it’s compatible with your PC. Note that this update takes some time, if you have a laptop, plug it into the mains because it would be a shame to run out of battery before the update is complete.
