Hi guys. I recently Reformatted my computer and re-installed Windows 10 64-bit OS. I am currently on W10 version 1909, and I have lately noticed that when Origin is running, there is really high CPU usage. I have seen it upwards of 80%. when no game or anything is running. Has anyone else experienced this, and or know a fix? Here are my laptop specs:

MSI GT75 Titan 8SF

- Windows 10 Home 64-bit OS (1909 Version)
- 32GB System RAM
- Intel Core i7 8th Gen 8750H @ 2.20 GHz

I have also lately noticed my HDD light is flickering lots. I currently have an 1TB Samsung Evo Plus with the OS installed in my laptop, and a 4TB HDD/SSD Hybrid drive installed as well.

Help would be greatly appreciated
 
First thing to check. If Origin In-Game Overlay is enabled, disable it, reboot and see if it's still happening.
 
Try disabling the Origin Web Helper Service in Windows, reboot, then disable Web Helper services in Origin.
