I set up a test user and disconnected all devices. Basically just a stand
alone PC. After the indexer completed, there was nothing running that I

and no writing to disk other than the Resource Monitor. Still it appears
that 75% of one of the cores is being utilized by a process that isn't listed.
Thoughts?
