Why does Antimalware Service Executable use a lot of CPU?
The main reason that antimalware service executable uses too much CPU is that it runs constantly in the background.
While running in the background, it actively scans programs and files and carries out the appropriate actions whenever it detects anything malicious.
In addition, the antimalware service executable uses too much CPU because it scans its own folder - C:\Program Files\Windows Defender.
So, stopping antimalware service executable from scanning its own folder is one of the ways you can make it use less CPU.
