Services and Controller app Random High CPU usage.

Anonymous

When i look on task manager, I will sometimes see Services and Controller app using around 30-40% CPU sometimes when i am playing games, this happens and total cpu usage goes to 100%, and it seems to make my voice call sound weird.

For some context, this always happens on start-up and then at random times. I use a laptop.

Is there anyway to fix this? and if not fixable what is the Services and Controller app process doing?

    I had the same issue.

    "Service and app controller app" was at 95% usage.

    For me the problem was a program names "Segurazo" i uinstalled it and now my computer is normal.

    The way i found out was when i were going to perform a clean boot startup.

    i open "System Configuration" then went to "Services" Hid all Microsoft services. but the Segurazo service would`t be disabled. so i uinstalled it and then it worked.

    For others this might be caused by the LenovoVantageService
