I don't know, it seems the system detects some user idle-ness, and does some maintenance tasks - it's funny though when i open the task manager how it suddenly calms down haha "OH SHIT HERE HE COMES HIDEEEEE" -
olback109816yMy laptop does this when I run Windows on it. The fan rarely ever spins when I'm booted to Linux.

diggerdev246yI had the same phenomena. I found out it is the .net runtime optimization service running on a low priority process. it is precompiling .net assemblies and can be turned off.

I had the same and in my case it was some idle task. But there are some malware miners that only activate when idle so the user doesn't notice
-
McSebi5016yMaybe a *coin miner which detects when your pc is idle, better do an offline scan on all your drives

I had this today and it was Windows Update checking.
Actually I think it's nice they do these things when I am not using the computer.
Although working under load is okay these days, like under Linux, it would be death when gaming.
... But I like the idea that my computer is just overly attached... 😁 -
Phlisg25246y@Awlex most processes that caught my glimpse before terminating upon my return to the computer are the Windows Updater and Chrome's software reporter. These two form a nice couple of "let's make fan hum more", but prefer being discrete, ashamed by their actions
Otherwise, most of the time, my PC doesn't make much noise
My PC when I use it: "..."
My PC when I look at something on my phone: *gentle fan hum*
My PC when I resume activity : "..."
My PC, 5 minutes after leaving it: **VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV**
** sits down, still big fan blowing, open up the task manager to see what's bugging the system **
** PC calms down **
I have an overly attached PC?
