I upgraded to windows 10 version 1903 a few weeks ago. Shortly afterwards I noticed that my fans were running extremely fast and my CPU temps per core were running in the mid 50s C at system idle. Previously they were running in the mid to high 30s C. Task Manager shows my CPU usage at 100%. I get things back to normal if I disable the Power service, but as soon as I enable it again, my fans begin to race and the temps go up. My system uses an ASRock motherboard with an Intel i7-8700k and an 8500 watt power supply. I use the Balanced power setting profile. Diagnostics for Power doesn't pick up anything and I can't find anything with Google for anyone with a similar problem. I had a similar issue a couple of years back, but it was caused by me using the High Performance power profile. Once I changed to the Balanced profile the problem disappeared. This time, the problem is occurring with the Balanced power setting. Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be appreciated.

TheSETJ, you can disable the Power Service and the fans will slow down to normal speeds. This should be an acceptable work-around until Microsoft fixes the issue.
Can you please explain how to do that? I doubt I understood you right.
By the way, if they slow down, CPU's temperature will go higher, I think!?

Slowing down fans is useless. Cpu temp will be higher.
Our problem is not fans spinning too much. The reason for the fans spinning is high cpu temp due to this update problem. Lowering fan speed will not solve the problem

I confirm that. After disabling Power service, CPU's temperature is about 50C when PC is idle. It was a bit lower (between 40-45C) before disabling the service.
I have upgraded this version to serve my business needs. The CPU of the device runs very hot when running 20 browser tabs on website design. I am working in 38LAND business and they do not like to delay.
