High CPU Usage when idle

I have the same problem with Linux Mint 19 64bit and Cinnamon Desktop.

i have the same problem with HP ENVY 15-as152nr (i7-7500, 16gb, 500ssd). 

 

I have noticed of late that TeamViewer is seriously sucking up computer resources ALL the time, even though it's only running in the taskbar and supposedly doing nothing else.

For example, I have a small computer that is old now but with TeamViewer installed the computer does not want to run because of the extremely high CPU drain.

A second Brand New computer 3 weeks ago (i7-8550U), same thing, CPU constantly running from about 40 to 50% CPU.

My main Desktop PC, an i7-7700, Always Topping the CPU usage list at about 10% and HIGH to Very High-Power usage.

This seems like a new phenomenon, please explain why. Is it because of really bad program coding on your part or what's the reason?

I run a fully paid version of TeamViewer on Windows 10 machines. (32bit and the other 2 64bit).

This is fustrating, when you are paying for a service like this, you expect some sort of support. maybe if we all move to a new service they might get a clue. 

It's a shame that nobody at TeamViewer support team reply to our comments. I'm thinking about how many computers in the world are running slow because of TeamViewer - but their owners don't know the reason... Or know it but are just uninstalling the application without report the problem here like us. Come on support team, please!!!!!

Not seeing anything usable for me in the many other High CPU usage posts, so I'm trying my own. 

I'm on a fairly ordinary computer: Lenovo X260, which has Core i7 and integrated Intel Graphics and runs Windows 10 Pro. Recently, I'm not sure how long, the fans have just been screaming non-stop, and I finally realized this and checked my Task Manager to find at all times, TeamViewer is taking between 30 and 90 percent CPU resources, frequently splitting this down to about 45/45 with Service Host: Local Session Manager. 

I have reinstalled. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. I've restarted several times.

I have scanned for malware.

I have attempted to disable Windows' graphics hardware acceleration as I saw in a separate post but cannot locate that option since now all of the dialogue boxes are different. Also that seems like a very poor solution.

I've checked on the TeamViewer monitor driver, and attempted to install it, which promptly fails with basically no explanation other than a "failed to install" message.

The computer which is slowly being killed by TeamViewer isn't even accessing or being accessed. It's just idle, with over 90% CPU usage.

Now it's worse. The behavior has spread to another computer. Heard the fans start screaming and checked Task Manager. Sure enough, CPU is maxed, TeamViewer at about 48%, Local Session Manager at about 42%. The number of times TeamViewer has started to do things that make me either have to quit using it or drastically change my computer usage is getting to be far too many.

I forgot to mention, I thought I created my own thread but I might have hijacked someone elses' by accident so, sorry. Also. I can no longer kill the app. IT COMES BACK. What's that all about.

I also have this issue
These are some of the errors and warnings from the windows event logger that might be helpful tracking down the root of the problem: (i'm not sure if they are related, they just happened around the same time as the 100% cpu usage)
