Microsoft software protection platform service experiencing heavy CPU usage
It sounds like you're referring to a Microsoft software protection service, possibly related to licensing or digital rights management. The high CPU usage (30%) likely means the system is actively checking for compliance, scanning files, or running background processes tied to that service.
It shouldn't be turned on since I have an antivirus installed.
You're using Eset. That's great! Let me know how I can assist you.
