I've just updated to macOS Big Sur 11.0. and I'm facing a huge battery drain and cpu usage probably caused by this "kernelmanagerd" process. Is there something I can do to stop it?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.0
For me, it seemed to be an old version of Karabiner Elements. I updated it to the latest version so I could open the app's preferences (as I couldn't open the old version on Big Sur), then uninstalled it. Kernelmanagerd dropped from about 50% to 0%.
Running on Big Sur version 11.2.1 (20D74) and had my CPU running at over 900%. After this screenshot was taken it jumped to over 1000%
I'm experiencing same issue! uninstalled a malware program but kernelmanagerd
is still eating up my memory and the fan is running constantly, and getting very hot!!
can i delete kernelmanagerd?
HOW?
thank you...
