Scannan

If IMF is using 90% CPU, then your machine would become almost unusable, as 10% available CPU would not be enough to perform other functions. I assume that when you ran your first scan with IMF, that you allowed the scan to fully complete. I ask this, because when IMF is first installed it runs a full scan to check your system,which uses a lot of resources. Subsequent scans should then run with much less resource usage.

Open your Task manager and then run a scan in IMF. See if IMF is responsible for all the increased CPU usage or if other processes are using CPU, due to the scan. IMF may be causing other processes to activate.

That was a copy/paste error. I have corrected it. Thank you for pointing it out.

Is this the first version of IMF you have used, or did you have the previous version, and if so, did it have the same CPU issue.

You are welcome. If Iobit programs are shredding files when deleting, instead of just sending them to the recycle bin, then they should make that clear in their programs, with a warning.

Just so you understand...... it does not matter whether it goes through the trash bin or not. Unless a file is deleted using a file shredder, then it is still retrievable. Deleted files are still on the drive, and will remain so until they are overwritten. I have recovered files which had been deleted for years.

Undelete should find it even if it has been deleted from the trash bin (recycle bin). Are you sure you know the name of the video. The only other reason you may not be able to undelete it, is if it has already been overwritten. That will depend on how much writing to disk you have done since you deleted the file, and how much free space you have on your disc. If it is a very important file then you could try specialised software such as MiniTool Power Data Recovery.

If you know the Video Name, you could try using the Undelete function, in Advanced Systemcare Toolbox. (Please note: I have removed your post in General Forum Items, as double posting is not allowed)

How long have you been using IMF, and did you have this issue from the first time you used it, or did it start later???

Octavian Roger_M has already said that his cpu is high for the entire scan

Do you know which drivers you updated. If not, then it is going to be very difficult to resolve the issue as you have uninstalled DB and so you have no logs or history. See if you have a restore point (in system restore) for a time before you updated the drivere. If so, use it to restore your system to that time. This will undo any driver updates.

I have looked for others reporting this issue, and I have not found any. Again, I suggest you try a complete uninstall and re-install.

Did you try uninstalling and re-installing, in case there is a corruption in the program.

Is it high for the entire time it is scanning, or just at the beginning. It is quite normal for a scan to use maximum cpu when it begins and then it drops right down as the scan progresses.

Put it in the Cortex Ignore list/Whitelist.

I suggest in future that you read the product manuals of programs before using them. You might save yourself a lot of grief. https://www.iobit.com/product-manuals/imf-help/

Look in the Safebox settings to see if there is an option for when you forget your password.

Well, if you take that attitude with your bank....I wish you good luck. I tried to help you....I am a volunteer....I don't get paid for this. Also, there are lot's of posts in the Forum dealing with this sort of issue, if you had bothered to look. It is usually suggested to send a private message to Cicely....the Iobit team member on the forum. Additionally....you may be the victim of a scam....so the bank/police is maybe a good option.

Open the toolbox in ASC Ultimate and in the System Optimise section, you will see the... ASC portable version....option.

First, you should have started a New Topic, and not added your issue to an old Topic. Second, writing in Bold to make your point is not allowed in the Forum, and should not be repeated. There are loads of posts/topics in the forum which would help you with this issue. If it works in safe mode but not in normal mode, then that means that one of your programs is stopping it. You should get notifications as to which program is blocking it. If you are not then you need to look at your settings in Windows Notifications. Most likely your Antivirus/antimalware programs (including Windows Defender) or Controlled Folder Access. Temporarily disable your Antivirus/antimalware programs and see if it will install and run in normal mode. If it does then you should whitelist ( or add to ignore list) ASC in your Antivirus/antimalware programs. Also you may have to Allow it in Windows controlled Folder Access. .

Go through your settings. If you only want it to work on command from you, then Autocare and Autoclean should not be on.

Saying,,,,,"Then I run ASC and the printer will not print ".........does not tell us anything. What exactly did you do/run with ASC that caused the problem
