Etrecheck report- something is using unusually large amounts of cpu power in my new MacBook m3pro, and is causing random beach balling. My etrecheck report says something in my MacBook m3pro is using unusually large amounts of cpu power, and is causing random beach balling when doing things like opening the App Store or trying to add credit cards to Apple Pay on the laptop. Ive attached the report below- though this is a device that is pretty much brand new with hardly anything downloaded.

Unusually high CPU usage M4 Mac mini (EtreCheck report included) Hi guys, I'm wondering if someone can help me out. For quite some time now, I have been experiencing high CPU usage from a number of apps. I mainly use my Mac for video conferencing on apps like Zoom,Telegram and Discord. As these are the apps I use most often, they are the ones I see CPU usage hit 80% regularly. It is not uncommon to see higher, and I have even seen Telegram hit 200% recently. This problem has persisted through several system wipes and MAC OS reinstalls. I used EtreCheck to generate a report today and I have pasted the contents below. I'm not really sure what to make of it - as I kinda knew these things were happening. I think the part referring to the incorrectly installed extension is relating to Camo. I have deleted the app but something remains that keeps trying to reinstall something Camo related to run in the background.I get a notification about it at least once a day. On a side note, I have also been experiencing issues with my sound during video calls.It has been observed to be transmitting sound when it should be on mute. This could be input from the mic, or perhaps media I am playing (which could be picked up by the mic). I would also say that sometimes I think my camera could also be transmitting when it shouldn't be, although I have no evidence for this. But it sure has seemed like it sometimes. Anyway, here is the EtreCheck output. If anyone has any advice, please let me know. I have already been to an Apple Store and they found nothing wrong and declined to do a complete firmware wipe and reinstall becuase they basically said I was inadvertently causing the problem. Even though they couldn't explain how, and everyone agreed it was very strange behaviour for an M4 Mac that should be struggling with a video chat...

Perhaps someone else sees something, but I saw nothing alarming in your Etrecheck report.

Is there a reason you ran the report? What symptoms are you trying to understand?

Well, Adobe takes a lot of resources and you have only 8 GB of RAM. And you do not remember installing it or the other MS apps? And which of the 589 apps you have installed do you not know?

That is a minor issue. Unless you having some other, specific problem, there is nothing you need to do.
