I have been downloading a lot of files and then unzipping them with 7Zip. For some reason the 7Zip console and Firefox were using 30+% each. The moment I ended the 7Zip console task everything returned to normal. I have no idea about the reasons this happens and just wanted to pass the information on.

Hi

Thanks for letting us know.

Worth mentioning that Windows 10 has the ability to unzip compressed files. It treats them as a special kind of folder, a "compressed folder" that can can browse through using file manager.
