Hello EAbad1,
Thank you for your response.
In this case, I think the issue might be related to a conflict in the system, as Scott Pearson mentioned before the way to uninstall the DCH drivers is throughout apps & features, I think that when the DCH driver was uninstalled through device manager the operating system could have installed a legacy driver since the system was running DCH drivers this could have a conflict between the drivers/OS.
These are the recommendations:
Try an Operating System restore point however if the option is not possible you might try a clean operating system installation.

I forgot to mention that the Intel Control Panel is also missing before I reinstalled the driver when I right click on desktop and after I reinstall the driver it has the same result

Before anything else, understand that, with the switch to the DCH driver model (a requirement of Microsoft), the Intel Graphics Control Panel will no longer be available via the right-click context menu. Most configuration tasks will be performed via the Intel Graphics Command Center application, which should be installed automatically after installing the driver package and rebooting. Note that a version of the Intel Graphics Control Panel applet is available via the Microsoft App Store and can be separately downloaded (but this will not install it onto the context menu).
I suggest you try the following:
- Download the latest driver package to your PC. If this is a laptop, use only driver packages from your laptop manufacturer.
- Disable Internet access. Unplug Ethernet cable and/or disable wireless.
- Uninstall the latest Intel HD Graphics driver package. DO NOT DO THIS VIA DEVICE MANAGER! Do so by uninstalling the full package via the Windows Apps and Features applet.
- Keeping Internet access disabled, reboot the machine.
- Install the latest driver package.
- If it doesn't happen automatically, reboot the machine once the install is complete.
- Enable Internet access during login process.
- Test.
Hope this helps,
...S

Thank you for the reply, I was wondering if I can use DDU to uninstall it because I can't find the driver at apps and features.

There's no Intel Graphics Driver entry? If you've done a full install, there should be.

This is why I tell people to NEVER install or uninstall drivers via Device Manager. This is how you end up with a screwed up system.
Only raw drivers, without installers, should ever be handled this way -- and, at the same time, the driver developer who providing them this way should be fired for having done so.
Can you use DDU to fix this? Maybe. Make sure you remove both the Intel HD Graphics and Intel Display Audio drivers.

I already fixed the Intel Graphics Driver missing by using the Intel Driver and support assistant and also my laptop being MSI, should I get the driver package from Intel or MSI because the driver versions are different
MSI being on the left and Intel's on the right

Hello EAbad1,
Thank you for posting on the Intel® communities.
I would like to mention that what the community suggested before is accurate.
Additionally, our recommendation is to use the MSI* drivers since the manufacturer may have altered the features, incorporated customizations, or made other changes (highly customized).

Hello EAbad1
Thank you for your response.
Normally, the driver package has a .exe file that you can run when you click on it then follow the wizard installation, it should be installed without issues.

The previous suggestions to Try an Operating System restore point or clean operating system installation are bogus and unnecessary.
Download the latest Intel graphics driver matching your hardware (I did that from Lenovo as an .exe)
Run the installation and when asked, select extract only and use default folder.
Run the installer manually from extract folder (something like: c:\DRIVERS\WIN\IntelVGA\20xxxxxx.xxxxxxx\Installer.exe)
During setup step, select Execute a clean installation.
Complete the installation and reboot.
This seems to have fixed the high CPU problem for me.
