    Only thing that worked for me was updating the firmware for my SSD. Nothing on this forum helped.

    I had to boot in safe mode with Network. Download WD dashboard and update my WD Blue SSD 510.

    I tried lots of steps like , registry AHCI driver option (decimal-1-0) , some of services disable-sysmain service, Connected User Service & Telemetry but not worked.

    also try end some high process in task manager and disable unwanted startup application, this step worked on some of laptop and desktop .

    I tried the all solution on laptop finally I start my worked steps, first remove the all unwanted files - Run- %temp% - select all files and shift delete. Use same procedure for temp, prefetch, recent command,

    Then go to my computer (This pc) and select C:/ Drive- go to properties -click on "Tools" then click on 'check' this option use for check the all system errors . After complete the scan drive - click on 'optimize" - analyze - optimize (after click on that option all drive will defragment - it will take some time ,Then check the disk usage in task manager, there will be get some progress. Thanks,
