Windows 11 Disable Super Fetch and Cortana to fix High CPU Load Issue

DISABLE SUPERFETCH SERVICE

Superfetch (Sysmain) is a service that allows apps on Windows to load content even before you open them. However, depending on the number of apps you use and your PC’s configuration, the CPU usage can also bump significantly. To fix this, you can disable the Superfetch service for some time. Here’s how.

Step 1: Press the Windows key + R to launch the Run command. Type in services.msc in the box and press Enter.

Step 2: Locate the SysMain service on the list and double-click on it to open its properties.

Step 3: Change the Startup type to Disabled and hit Apply followed by OK.

Restart your computer to apply the changes and monitor if it still shows high CPU usage in the Task Manager.

DISABLE CORTANA

Many users have also reduced CPU usage after disabling Cortana on Windows. Although Microsoft’s digital assistant is much less intrusive on Windows 11, it might hog system resources at times.

Step 1: Press the Windows key + I to open the Settings app. In the Apps tab, click on Installed apps.

Step 2: Scroll down to locate Cortana, click on the three-dot menu next to it, and select Advanced options.

Step 3: Lastly, toggle off the Cortana option under the  ‘Runs at log-in’ section.

Set Up a ZeroTier Network on OpenWRT

Mirrored from: https://kysonlok.github.io/2020/06/12/Set-Up-a-ZeroTier-Network-on-OpenWRT/

In this test, we set up Zerotier on Asus OpenWRT routers. To use ZeroTier service, you need to create your own ZeroTier account. Sign up for an account here: https://my.zerotier.com/login.

Important: Stop other VPN service on the router before you start is recommended

Login your ZeroTier account. Go to Network menu and click on Create button
to create a new network.

Next you should see the configuration page of your network. Please jot down the Network ID which will be used later.

Setup ZeroTier on router

Installation

SSH to the router, and execute the following commands to install ZeroTier package:

opkg update
opkg install zerotier
opkg install ipset

Configuration

ZeroTier

You should edit the configuration file /etc/config/zerotier to enable ZeroTier
and join into a network. It looks like:

# cat /etc/config/zerotier
config zerotier 'sample_config'
	option enabled '1'
	list join 'd5e5fb6745219a7d'

Please replace the code above d5e5fb674521a7d with your own Network ID.

Firewall(optional)

If you want to access the router’s LAN, you have to configure the firewall as
well. Please edit the firewall configuration file /etc/config/firewall. Add
below lines into it.

config zone 'vpn_zone'
	option name 'zerotier'
	option input 'ACCEPT'
	option forward 'REJECT'
	option output 'ACCEPT'
	option device 'zt+'
	option masq '1'
	option mtu_fix '1'

config forwarding
	option dest 'zerotier'
	option src 'lan'

config forwarding
	option dest 'lan'
	option src 'zerotier'

Start ZeroTier Service

/etc/init.d/zerotier restart
/etc/init.d/firewall restart

Go back to your Zerotier’s web console and you will see the device which you just joined. Check the checkbox of “Auth?”, otherwise, your device may not be able to get an IP address from ZeroTier.

After authentication, the network interface will obtain an IP address. Check it
out via ifconfig, it looks like:

# ifconfig 
ztwdjh372k Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 7E:BD:F0:B6:4E:87  
          inet addr:10.241.143.3  Bcast:10.241.255.255  Mask:255.255.0.0

          inet6 addr: fe80::7cbd:f0ff:feb6:4e87/64 Scope:Link

          TX packets:68 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:1638 (1.5 KiB)  TX bytes:4368 (4.2 KiB)

Managed Routes(optional)

You can manage route in ZeroTier’s web console. For example, I add a static route on Managed Routes, so that I can access the router’s LAN.

OpenWRT – Change LAN IP in LuCI (to an IP on a different subnet)

Issue: Can’t change LAN IP in LuCI. After applying the changes, it fails and comes up with some dialogue box.

Root cause: This happens if the new IP is on a different subnet. It’is known and in fact deliberately designed to prevent the user from accidentally locking themselves out.

Solution: If you are confident that the new IP is correct, you have a few options:

  • Choose Apply Unchecked in the dialogue box*/. This will apply the settings without checking if you can access the new IP or not, so double check the IP.
  • If you prefer to not to bypass the check then you can do one of the following immediately (within 30 seconds) after changing the IP and applying the settings:
    1. Make your PC get a new IP (for example by disconnecting and reconnecting the cable or the WiFi, or via the terminal), then quickly edit the router IP in the browser Window to the new IP.
    2. Have prepared two static IPs for your PC LAN interface (one on the old IP range and the other in the new IP range), then after applying the settings in LuCI you quickly edit the router IP in the browser Window to the new IP.
  • Connect with SSH and issue the commands: 
    uci set network.lan.ipaddr='10.0.0.1' ; uci commit network ; service network restart

Enable Guest Access in SMB2 for Windows 10

If you want to enable insecure guest access, you can configure the following Group Policy settings:  

Computer configuration\administrative templates\network\Lanman Workstation “Enable insecure guest logons”  

Note By enabling insecure guest logons, this setting reduces the security of Windows clients.
