Explorer.exe taking up 15-30% CPU usage when moving mou

You have at least 2 major problems. the even id 1000 source 100 is because DEP is misconfigured in system control panel

got to cpanel>system>advanced system settings>performance settings>DEP> it should be on for all apps. If some legit app is causing this we can exempt it. Im sure you have trouble installing apps with this error.

Then your other problem. It may resolve itself when you fix dep so try that first

Ok will try that. Uhm, why is dep disabled at this point? I haven't done anything with dep afaik.

So in the event viewer you should never see any red signs to be sure that I don't have any probs?

Virus' disable it. and system corruption does. Can I assume you have a current owrking anti virus, and are at least using the windows firewall

Here's the current (without me doing anything) setting of DEP:

That's already turned ON right?

I'm using ESET NOD32 x64 and yes Windows Firewall and Defender.

Also, I never had any problems installing programs, at least up to now.

that is correct except for the cpu usage. One thing I notice about eset (im using it) is high cpu use when it runs randon scans. try disabling it and see what happens

BTW if you look in event viewer at the event ID 80 in the bottom pane it will tell you what application is causing it

What do you mean "except for the CPU usage" ?

Is that setting in my DEP window already correct? Or should I tick the second radio button?

I tried disabling ESET but the problem still exists. And when I open task manager, I don't see ekrn.exe having high CPU usage, well that's for me.

Is the "DEP on for all" the default setting for Win7?

Yes I checked all of them and they do have the same info pertaining to Adobe.

Yeah, but if the 64-bit flash player is the problem, should I be uninstalling the 32-bit flash player to see if the problem goes away?

And is the flash player still working even though I'm just in the desktop without any programs opened?

Is Adobe CS4 Drive in your context menu? If yes -

Open RegEdit and delete these two entries.

You have 2 different versions installed. If most of them say

then un-install acrobat 9.0 completely from everywhere. go to adobe and re-install the newest version

That's weird, I installed adobe acrobat 9.0 only ONCE from the first time I installed win7. But let me try to re-install it anyway.

Adobe is an incestuous suite. The 64-bit install must install components from both versions for suite interaction.

Context menu = right click.

The CS4 Drive context menu entry is called in every folder.

Oh ok. I don't have CS4 Drive in my context menu.

So with Adobe being an incestuous suite, what do you recommend I do to get rid of that Event ID 80 error?

 

[Antman]

Confirm that you have Adobe whatever 64-bit. Anyway, that is an Adobe problem, not a Windows problem. Contact Adobe.

I already uninstalled Adobe Acrobat, and the explorer.exe cpu usage issue is still there.

If this were a USB issue, why is it not happening in Vista?
