@chandrashekar18,

 

I reviewed your post and I understand that the computer is consuming more data.

 

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

 

Which much data is getting used?

What type of Internet connection do you have?

 

Meanwhile, I would like to inform you that even when you do not have any applications running, there will be few process which will be running the background which may consume the data.

 

I hope that answers your question and you have a great day!

@chandrashekar18,

 

Follow the below steps to find which application is consuming more data.

 

  1. Launch Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc).
  2. If Task Manager opens in the simplified view, click “More Details” in the bottom-left corner.
  3. In the top-right of the window, click the “Network” column header to sort the processes table by network usage.

 

If you’d like to see actual data usage details for your apps, switch to the “App history” tab in Task Manager. The Network column here shows you the total network data usage of your apps over the past 30 days.

 

Further information can be obtained by opening the Settings app and navigating to Network > Data usage. This screen displays data usage for traditional desktop programs too, whereas Task Manager only includes Microsoft Store applications.

 

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!
