Games added as non steam game is lagging with cpu usage 100%.
This is CPU usage when I am in Game menu, everything is super laggy. And the same issue happened with Genshin Impact where the a week before there was no issues but then from thursday the Genshin Welcome screen is like running 4fps and my cpu usage is 100%.

is hardware acceleration enabled in the steam client?
It's default disabled on nvidia hardware
yes enabled
what is actually using the CPU when this happens?
go to the apps tab
it's jsut steam using the entire cpu, the same game opened from Heroic laucher Witcher 3, it works no issues but from steam other than cut scene videos everything is like 4 to 10 fps
similar behaviour is happening for Genshin Impact

sort by CPU
witcher is only using 50%
need to know where it's going
I have added 2 screen shots sorted by cpu, one is lauched from steam and another is lauched from Heroic, the cpu usage in heroic is only around 10 percent but from steam it's like 50 to 100%


I'm not seeing 100% usage in any of your pics
Nothing here looks broken
you can check the screenshot where the witcher is using half the memory 7gb in Heroic with 9% CPU usage compared to steam using 56% percent CPU with 15gb ram. Its fine I do not care about the usage but the game which is ran using steam is like running 4fps compared to 60+ fps in heroic
This happens also with Genshin which for some reason is not even openeing with heroic or lutris but it's openeing with steam but all the games from steam are either not starting or running with 4fps

Okay now I do not know what changed but the game opened with lutris now, but follows the same pattern where lutris is using 3% cpu and steam is using 56%, the game is running 60fps in Lutris but in steam it's running like a phot slideshow

Repaired steam Linux runtime files which fixed the issue
