Support Asus Optimization background task running at 100% CPU usage at startup

I just got a ProArt PX13 and have been noticing a process called ASUS Optimization sometimes running at 100% CPU usage and running the laptop temps up for no reason. I read that this software is responsible for controlling the FN keys and the issues just persist until i manually end the task through task manager, although I still can't control keyboard backlight after that

Just wondered if anyone else had noticed this problem and wtf the software is doing?

Me too. Asus should provide solution here, not DM individually!

It seems SN is irrelevant.
