Windows module install worker uses cpu when there is a windows update going on in the background.
Open Settings>Update and Security>Windows update and see if any updates are being installed.
Antimalware service executable is windows defender(inbuilt antivirus). It runs in the background and keeps scanning for malware. Though it doesn't use CPU all the time.
Dell inventory utility- right click on service on task manager and open file location. See if you need the application. (Btw I don't have any dell software installed on my laptop and its fine.)
Desktop window manager - It should generally be using b/w 1-5% GPU.
You mentioned trying some steps, just verify if you done below all of them.
Thanks for your replay. I updated my Windows to 2006 version but installation can't be complete due to a problem. The following note is showing.
We're having trouble restarting to finish the install. Try again in a little while. If you keep seeing this, try searching the web or contacting support for help. This error code might help: (0x80070032)
Not actually, Because it was the same even after the windows update (1906) was completed. And I was really struggling a lot to use my laptop in daily work. But after few days windows asked for new update (2004) and when I successfully installed 2004 update, the cpu usage became normal. But still it's not as good as my friend's laptop. He has a same configured laptop like mine, but still it's good enough.

Can you tell which app/service is using cpu and memory from task manager?
