    Hi,

    I just got a Clevo p650rp6-g running Windows 10 Education (64 bit), fully updated. Everything works fine, but one process called "rerun (32 Bit)" keeps popping up and using a constant ~17% CPU until I close the process through the task manager.

    It's not in the autostart and it doesn't seem to serve any purpose. The rerun.exe is in the folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Hotkey", where alot of Clevo specific stuff like the control center, Hktray etc. is located, too. I can't find anything about this process in Google.

    Do you know the purpose of it and how can I keep it from starting up and drain CPU constantly?

    Greetings
    Chris

    I signed up to this forum since I'm in exactly the same situation. I'm also using a Clevo (sager) laptop running Win 10 Education 64-bit and this rerun.exe is taking 17-19% CPU constantly. Did you have any luck finding why this is or its purpose?

    Its the Clevo control center, I disabled it from starting with the system but it would still run even if the software didn't auto start...I went into the software and deleted the file and for me it was not a problem and it is no longer using the cpu as it was.

    Can you reinstall CCC - or remove it - and monitor your CPU usage again?

    We had ran into another issue with the Education Edition and are trying to whittle away at this.
