Microsoft is enhancing Task Manager in the upcoming Windows 11 update by introducing a standardized method for calculating CPU utilization. This update aims to align Task Manager's metrics with those of third-party tools, improving its effectiveness. The new calculation method will provide consistent CPU workload displays across the Processes, Performance, and Users pages, potentially reducing the need for external applications.
