High GPU Usage | Desktop Windows Manager + Client Server Runtime

Hello,

I've been having issues with high GPU usage for a few days now, for unknown reasons.
Nothing was installed, the problem came out of nowhere.
I've read about this everywhere, in NVIDIA forums and beyond. I have tried various methods but nothing has helped.
For this reason I had to stop what I usually did.

It happens all the time, after 5-10 minutes of using Microsoft Edge for example. This is very annoying.
You have to wait about 3 minutes for the laptop to stop lagging.

 

I've noticed that most people have this problem on a Dell laptop, and in my case it's an MSI.
Is there an effective solution to this?
I beg for a quick answer.

 

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M, Intel HD Graphics 530

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6300HQ CPU @ 2.30GHz 2.30 GHz

Installed memory (RAM): 8,00 GB (7,89 GB usable)

System type: 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor.
