I believe crashpad_handler creates and uploads crash reports and that there are multiple software that make use of it. In my case, it comes from VS code, location:
/Applications/Visual Studio Code.app/Contents/Frameworks/Electron Framework.framework/Resources/crashpad_handler
I have never seen such high CPU consumption, my Macbook Air becomes extremely noisy.
I am tempted to just delete the "crashpad_handler" unix executable, however, I fear that in the future if my program ever crashes I might not be able to get help from technical support since none of my crash reports will have been uploaded.
This seems to be quite a common issue, however, I have not seen any thread regarding this here.
Kindly suggest how can I fix this issue once and for all (not just force quit it in the activity monitor since I'll have to do that every time).
Thank you.
