DisplayLink Forum - View Single Post - Windows 10, high load from WUDFHost.exe Windows Driver Foundation - User-mode Driver

Hi,

Yesterday I downloaded this version again:
DisplayLink USB Graphics Software for Windows - DEV BUILD NR-135298-LS-1 (8.3.1852)

First nothing changed but then, after a few minutes, all of a sudden the CPU-load went down. Both for "explorer.exe" and "WUDFHost.exe". Today the CPU-load is going crazy again: Both processes consume around 50% together. So I am back to where I was.

UPDATE:
I just disabled the visual effects in windows and the CPU-load went down immediately. Does this mean that the docking station + the display link driver does not work well when the visual effects are enabled?
This is my setting for now but I will keep an eye on it to make sure if this really was the solution to switch to "Adjust for best performance":

Cheers,
Kris
