Task Manager using almost 100% CPU time

[Al Vas]

Hi,

I don't know what's started this but when accessing Windows Explorer I find
my whole PC slows down. When I look at performance in Task Manager I find
it is 100% and most of it is being used by Explorer. It stays this way
until I exit explorer again. Any ideas why this might be?

Thanks

Hi Kelly,
How about a little information about what's going on and what your repair is
supposed to do?

Thanks!

Hi,

As the directions read on my site (top most), any edit can be read in
Notepad. This one deletes:

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\TaskManager]

And from there it is reset.
