TairikuOkami said: You can also disable DNS Client, after you setup your DNS servers manually. Change IPv4 and IPv6 DNS Server Address in Windows. Run CMD as admin and copy/paste to disable it, then restart. Code: reg add "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache" /v "Start" /t REG_DWORD /d "4" /f.
2. Restart DNS client service: You can try to restart DNS client service manually. Open the "Services" manager, find the "DNS Client" service, right-click and select "Restart". 3. 3. Check system files: You may consider trying to run the System File Checker (sfc /scannow) to repair possible corruption.
Steps I have done so far: 1. Ran sfc /scannow. 2. Checked permissions on the relevant registry keys compared to another (working) Windows 10 computer. 3. Replaced the file C:\windows\system32\dnsrslvr.dll with one from another (working) Windows 10 computer. 4. Checked the dependent services and drivers are running.
Replies (3) . It appears the DNS Client service is set to "Disabled". To set the startup type of the service to Manual, follow these steps: Open RegEdit.exe and go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache.

On 2021-06-01 I made a fresh install of Windows 10 Home, and now I am running version 21H1 (OS Build 19043.985). In Task Manager I can see that Service Host: DNS Client and Service Host: SSDP Discovery (together with a whole bunch of other network processes) is running in the background, putting a low albeit pretty constant load on the CPU, of ...
So, they would get high CPU usage as the DNS Client service tried to do some work. Jump ahead, we add a setting to the Group Policy specifying which DNS servers to use for DNSSEC. Now when the user goes home, DNSSEC says "Hey, I need to do my work for <specified dns server> and right now I'm getting 8.8.8.8.
Try this: Open cmd prompt/powershell with admin & enter: ipconfig /flushdns to see if this fixes the problem, I know you mentioned doing this but not that you tried via admin, if you did then move to-. Disable DNS Client through registry: Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Dnscache,
Start with Step 4 to turn off Startup freeloaders which can conflict and cause issues, then Step 7 to check for infection the most thorough way, then step 10 to check for damaged System Files, and also Step 17 to test a new Local Admin account.
I could never find the cause of DNS Client's mystery CPU usage. Absolutely nothing important was being done. Digging around online I found that stopping and restarting the service is a workaround. After stopping and restarting the DNS Client service, the CPU usage then dropped to a far more acceptable 0.2% and stayed there.
The solution I have used so far was just disabling the DNS Client Service (through registry). However, some applications require that service to be running in order to work correctly (what I think is also a bug). Those applications are: MS Edge, MS Store, Windows Sandbox (and probably more). I hope Windows developers will take a look at the ...
