Hi ..

Disk showing 100% and slowing down my system everytime . I have tried some of the fixes posted in google but nothing worked so far. 

tried almost everything suggested in - https://www.drivereasy.com/knowledge/100-disk-usage-windows-10-fixed/

Task manager indicate some times single windows update , some times single system windows process takes almost 98% of disk . 

I killed all background processes once and it seems resolved for a while but its resurfacing. 

Please help me to resolve this .

Thanks 

Ganesh

    Thansk for coming back to us. I tried all these methods when I was researching this issue, like disabling Windows Search and Superfetch, at least the ones applicable to my computer, but nothing worked. I feel it's just that Windows 10 is very bad at managing disk access and priorities, compared to Windows 7 on the same computer and under the same circumstances.

    No, I looked at it, and saved the URL when I found it elsewhere, but the problem has already disappeared after I removed Samsung Link from my machine.

    I completely agree with GanapatiraoYegireddi

    I have been more than a year trying all proposed solutions with no result - on a brand new and powerful computer.

    Microsoft does not really assume any responsibility and gives all this lenghty and unuseful solutiuons.

    The computer is reandomly blocked and randomly useful - not reliable at all.

    The disk is 100% used even when you are not running anything - and it jumps with no apparent reason.

    It would really be useful f mnicrosoft really provided a clear answer on this.
