I love to keep my PC clean and always on top condition. For past one week i've been noticing, on Warframe ive been getting certain Lag spikes on a constant cycle. Restarting the PC seem to solve it but it comes back after every 20ish minutes. All day today i kept my pc on and the "Fan Stop" light on my GPU never turned on. Its like I am running a game but my PC is idle.
I downloaded Process Hacker and found a suspicious activity with program called MSASCui.exe. After terminating the process my GPU seem to go back to its idle state and the 40%+ load was taken off instantly. After quick googling it, i found out that its part of windows defender. The location i found it was in AppData folder, inside another folder called secuROM. It had a file with GTX 1070 as part of its name. I donot believe its part of windows defender but if so why would Microsoft screwup like that. Any thoughts and experience are welcomed. hope this thread will help others as the cause of this issue cannot be found easily after googling. I can upload the files as zip content if anyone is interested. Thanks in advance.
