Troubleshooting High CPU and RAM Issues with Microsoft Defender These are all typical actions of a standard antivirus program, so you shouldn’t (usually) consider some CPU or RAM usage as a problem. This could be running an antivirus scan on a file or app, checking for new threat updates from Microsoft’s services, preventing third-party network threats, and more.
