All computer programs consume RAM, processor and hard disk space. In Windows 10 it may be the case that the Tiworker.exe process is consuming more resources than desired. Windows Modules Installer Worker can sometimes consume more processor resources than it should. Correcting this problem of excess consumption by this process is quite simple and we will explain how to correct the problem.

Windows Modules Installer Worker
It is a service that is present in the operating system Windows 10 (and also Windows 8) that performs the system maintenance functions. Specifically, what Windows Modules Installer Worker does is check for operating system updates. This process is associated with 'Tiworker.exe'
This service has been developed to work when the equipment is in the process of inactivity. Come on, if we go for a walk and the computer is on, it will be detected that there is no activity on our part and updates are searched. Occasionally this process can run 'unduly' consuming a lot of processor resources. If you have low-core processors, we will surely notice slowdowns or loading problems. But it is something that we can correct in a fairly simple way.
Fix consumption of Windows Modules Installer Worker
The Windows Update function is the one that generates this problem, although it has a solution. You must follow the following steps to correct the problem:
- Right button on the windows icon and click on 'Setting'
- Within the 'Control Panel' we look for the option of 'Update and Security'
- We look in the left sidebar for the option 'Solve problems'
- Inside the section 'In operation' we will see 'Windows Update'
- We press and we give 'Run troubleshooting'
- We click on 'Following'
- A window is shown on the screen that tells us if we want 'try to troubleshoot as administrator'. We click on this option
- We are following the steps indicated by the wizard to correct the problems
- When we get to the end, everything should be back to normal by now
If everything has gone well (surely yes) the problem of the excessive consumption of the Tiworker.exe processor will be history. This process, even when the computer is 'idle', consumes excessive resources. Correcting this problem does not affect the operation of the system or the download of updates at all.
[irp]Modify Tiworker.exe priority
Before carrying out the above process, if we want, we can modify the priority of this file. It is not something necessary or fundamental, it is simply a complement for the future. Within the task manager we can indicate that it has a low priority. The process is the following:
- Start the 'Task Manager'
- Let's go to the tab 'Details'
- We look for the process 'Tiworker.exe'. If we order it in alphabetical order it will be much easier
- Right button on the process and we get on 'Set priority'
- We chose the option 'Low'
This does not guarantee that the problem will not appear in the future or if we have it, that it will be corrected. To correct it is the previous process. This will help prevent this annoying process from causing problems in the future.
