CPU Maxes out after Premiere is Open For A Few Minutes

It doesn't matter what project I open, it completely maxes out my CPU within minutes, even when doing nothing.  Should I do a complete reinstall or is this an issue others have had? Because I can't seem to identify the issue outside of my CPU going out of control.

Hi @tylern77598905 - what os and premiere pro version are you on?  We released a new feature in 25.2 called media intelligence,

The high system usage you’re seeing is expected while the new Visual Analysis feature runs in the background. This process is designed to fully utilize available system resources to complete the analysis as quickly as possible.

If you begin playback or interact with the timeline, the analysis will pause to ensure smooth performance, and then resume once the system is idle again. Once the analysis completes, system usage should return to normal.


Let us know if you have any other questions or if you’re seeing different behavior.
