system and compressed memory high cpu usage
System and compressed memory is a memory process responsible for various functions related to system and memory. This process is mostly responsible for the compression of files and folders stored on your hard drive and the management of RAM. On average, the System and compressed memory process is only supposed to take up a small amount of CPU and Disk. However, in some cases, the System and compressed memory process starts using up 100% of affected users’ Disks, causing their computers to become incredibly slow and hindering the duties and responsibilities of other processes and tasks.
Some people are noticing that the System and Compressed Memory process shows High CPU, Ram, Disk Usage on their Windows 11/10 systems. In this tutorial, we have a few solutions that can help fix the issue.
This problem first came to light early this year and has been spreading more and more ever since.

On the bright side, it is entirely possible for Windows 10 users affected by this issue to fix it, and the following are the most effective solutions to this problem. If it’s just this process causing spikes in the usage, we wouldn’t recommend installing additional physical memory.
