Windows 10 100 Percent Disk Usage Problem

Hey Guys

I am one of the victims too, have been trying different things. Today I came across Microsoft Office Click to run service,  I stopped and disabled this service, Have been monitoring my disk activity , it is staying between 1 to 18 percent now, I ran many office apps soon after, the above service started again but amazingly Disk is relaxing now.

Check this trick guys, I don't have any justification for this service causing this problem but there is no harm trying..

Cheers

Thanks  will try and keep you guys posted.we have to help each other as Microsoft don't seem to care anymore. Even the HP guy I talked with, they said this problem is a known issue and exists mainly on Windows 10 home edition. It seems to be true as I don't have any such Disk Usage issue on my office laptop which is also running a Windows 10 but a Pro edition.

I have the exact same problem. Come on Microsoft you have a problem now fix it.

Hi all.

I had this problem too, on several of my company PCs.

I noticed Windows 10 keep using 100% of disk when Windows Update service is running.

Despite the fact "active hours" of all our PCs configuration is set to 8am to 20pm, Windows Update downloads and installs updates in background (maybe it's normal, I don't know -- but it's exaclty the reason that made our disks get stuck...).

Moreover, in august Microsoft released a cumulative update (2018-08) that blocked on 100% disk usage all PCs.

It installs it in background, BUT it needs a MANUAL reboot to complete the installation, and no notifications are showed since our set up of "active hours".

So, the only solution for me was:

• keep waiting Windows Update dowloads and installs everything it needs OR go to settings and force Windows Update to search for updates,
• reboot the PC manually.

These steps magically restore disk usage to about 1- 2%...

Another known problem is that sometimes Windows 10 does not retrieve correct drivers, when the OS installation is made from a previous disk image (with backup/restore programs...)

Hope this helps.

I also have this problem, it happens every day or two, and I keep doing the recommended solutions that will fix the problem for a day or two. I would like a real solution, something that would explain the reason for the disk space going to 97-100% I have run malware programs, security scans, used all of the "solutions on the internet" and done a full hardware scan. 

Microsoft, it is Windows 10, something is not right. Please tell me what you need I will send you my computer specs, if you would please give me a solution that doesn't involve sending my computer to the dump and buying a mac. 

I am willing to work at this if you have something to try I have not already done.
