Checking the high CPU usage on lsass.exe
It appears you may have a virus or malware present. Lsass.exe should consume minimal resources after login, and it shouldn't respond to games. I suggest turning off internet access, powering down the PC, and unplugging it for 90 seconds to clear system memory. Then plug it back in and restart without reconnecting. Perform a full system scan offline using Windows Security "virus and threat protection" with the full scan option selected. If Windows Security doesn't detect anything, proceed with a second scan via Trendmicro's free tool, ensuring you temporarily disable Windows.

I'm currently running NOD 32 ESET for a thorough scan, but it's taking a long time. Please let me know the results soon, thank you!
I attempted to use Nod 32, but it didn't locate anything. Windows Defender detected two trojans, though deleting them is not possible—it prompts to restart the device, which still identifies the same threats. Image1, image2
I checked my PC for four hours using nod32 but didn’t locate anything. Then I ran Malwarebytes and discovered 35 suspicious files, which I quarantined in about two minutes.
