The HP Hotkey UWP Service consumes 14-15% CPU all day long on my ZBook Create G7 and never relents. I've disconnected all devices, and this has no effect. This problem has been going on for months, and the approved "solution" on another thread says to just disable all the HP services. Disabling a service is not a "fix" for a service.
HP, please fix this software. It looks like it's related to the secondary functions of the function keys? I don't even use your keyboard, much less need 15% of my CPU consumed for the one time/month that I execute a secondary function of one of your function keys. Fix this. This is ridiculous.
