I have a couple of these "Windows command Processor" (cmd) running a dir command and taking 10-15% CPU constantly, heating everything up and well hogging CPU.

I also see findstr running around the same time, not sure if it's related.

Command running looks like ls -lR equivalent. No idea what is running that.

I opened "Indexing Options", it says "index complete". So not sure if it's indexing.

Any ideas?

Try killing the process and see if it pops up again. If it does not, you may have to try clean booting to see if the problem is present.

EDIT: the two processes are almost certainly related. They seem to be related to indexing. Please open the resource monitor (Win+R and type resmon) and post screenshot of the process.

Try using the Windows Process Explorer. It should show you which program or service started these processes. Process Explorer is a freeware task manager and system monitor for Microsoft Windows.
