After installing some Toshiba drivers and switching the battery / power mode to the Toshiba's "eco" mode the temps and CPU frequency dropped immediately. As I make this post my CPU ghz is at .78 and my temp is 40c. Before changing to Eco the CPU mhz were constantly around 1.3+ ghz even at idle. So even when the CPU was doing nothing Windows 10 was not scaling down the CPU freq the way it should.

Windows 10 - Toshiba Satellite e55 running hot
In Win8 I watched my temps closely and was usually around 38 to 44 c under a normal load. However since upgrading to Win10 I noticed my normal idle temps were around +45c. Even if the computer was untouched for several minutes and the task manager said CPU usage was below 5% the CPU temps would remain high and the CPU frequency would remain high.
