Do not remove local or profile, since those just contain your ingame settings. They will be completely reset if you remove those folders.
After doing this, just run the game. It will automatically redownload it without needing to manually verify your files. Last time I played and used this, I had to redo it again after I closed the game. So if the high CPU usage comes back, just redo these steps whilst the game is closed.
It's definitely not a permanent fix. We need to wait for the devs to fix it. They know about the bug, but are having difficulties pinpointing it down. So if anyone knows anything about it, @rspn_pav on twitter is a dev that people have been talking to about it on twitter. He's been trying to get as much information about the CPU bug as possible and has been asking people to share their PC specs with him.
Already tried this method and it didn't worked ☹️
