The Windows Defender programme uses a process called MsMpEng (MsMpEng.exe) called Antimalware Service Executable. The Windows Defender Service is the program’s associated service. The real-time feature, which is constantly checking files, connections, and other associated apps in real-time as it should be doing, is one of the two main causes of it using a lot of CPU power (Protect In Real Time).
The second option is the Full Scan feature, which may scan all files when the computer wakes up from sleep, connects to a network, or is set to run every day. What you need to know is that because Defender has hijacked the CPU, your system may frequently lag, hang, and respond slowly to your input and interactions while it is performing a thorough scan. Instead of panicking or losing patience, let the scan run for a few minutes, and if there are several files, etc., it might even take several hours.
For your protection, let it go through to completion; after it is finished, it will release the CPU, and USAGE will return to normal.

Windows frequently experiences excessive CPU use from a process known as Antimalware Service Executable (MsMpEng.exe). Its alternate name is Windows Defender Service, and it is in charge of continuously scanning the security of the system. Such a task requires a lot of memory, which causes computer latencies or slowdowns.
This guide will work on devices from all supported hardware manufacturers, including Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, Huawei, and Samsung, that are running the Windows 11 operating system (Home, Professional, Enterprise, Education).
