High CPU usage notification content sorting

[Martti Nuudi]

Hi,

I use high CPU notification to notify me when the CPU usage has been over 90% for the last 30 minutes.

Even though I have added more minutes to the time period, I still get a lot of these notifications. I would really like to know what is causing these long periods of high CPU usage but the content of the notification always displays processes with very low CPU usage. Can something be done to get this list sorted by the highest CPU using process?

Here is an example of the latest notification:

The CPU usage on computer 'XXX' in group XXX -XXX -XXX' is above 90% for the last 30 minutes

 

Top Processes:

Windows Explorer (Explorer.EXE): 0.04%

Host Process for Windows Services (svchost.exe): 0.03%

Microsoft Outlook (OUTLOOK.EXE): 0.03%

Desktop Window Manager (dwm.exe): 0.02%

SkypeApp (SkypeApp.exe): 0.02%

WMI Provider Host (wmiprvse.exe): 0.02%

Host Process for Windows Services (svchost.exe): 0.01%

Host Process for Windows Services (svchost.exe): 0.01%

Host Process for Windows Services (svchost.exe): 0.01%

Microsoft Excel (EXCEL.EXE): 0.01%.

Hi.

Have you tried to unhide system processes?

Also, if it is a Remote Desktop server, with lots of users, it could just be the sum of many processes.

Best Regards,
Martin

Some of the computers had checked the box that hides the known system processes but nothing has changed about the alert when I unchecked it.

These are regular user pc's.
