Devrim Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Blocking CorsairHID.exe in firewall causes high CPU usage Steps to reproduce: 1. Install CUE 2. Block CorsairHID.exe in Firewall 3. Reboot system 4. Open up taskmgr 5. Watch CorsairHID.exe flip his ****, prolly stuck in a loop. 14% CPU usage on an i7-3770K. On default CorsairHID.exe checks for new versions on startup but seems to not have a proper time-out system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franstam Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 hi, i am also facing this issue. apparently there is no timeout and also no way to prevent update checking for corsairhid.exe maybe a simple "do not check for updates" option would be nice, thanks.

Inheritance Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Does this happen if you boot and there isnt a internet connection for CUE to check for an update? or only when you block its internet access? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devrim Posted July 31, 2015 Author Share Posted July 31, 2015 Does this happen if you boot and there isnt a internet connection for CUE to check for an update? or only when you block its internet access? I turned my LAN adapter off and restart CUE. CPU usage was around 0% to 3%. Only blocking it with a firewall seems to make the CPU usage increase.

franstam Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 hi, any update for the above issue? an option just to disable the update check within the s/w will do just fine, thanks alot guys!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inheritance Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Not yet. They might add in an option to disable checking for updates in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair James Posted August 20, 2015 Corsair Employee Share Posted August 20, 2015 Hm, I thought we had resolved this in a previous software update. I'll pass this bug along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devrim Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 Hi, This bug is still present in the software. Can this get looked at? e: eh it seems there is a new CUE, does the old one still get updates or is it dead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inheritance Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Hi, This bug is still present in the software. Can this get looked at? e: eh it seems there is a new CUE, does the old one still get updates or is it dead? The older CUE is not receiving updates. This issue has been closed due to the fact that it is not deemed a bug, and rather user interference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
