Disk utilization 100% in Task manager

My laptop shows 100% disk utilization in the task manager for the first 20-30 mins after I start my machine. During this time when it is 100%, system performance is very slow. After 30 mins, disk utilization drops again under 20% and everything is normal.

I tried reaching out to Microsoft help a couple of times in the past and they suggested me to update my windows. That may have resolved the issue temporarily for few days but it starts behaving like this again.

Hi Charles,



Please reply to a few questions asked below to understand the issue better:

• 
  Did you try disabling the Startup programs on the computer?

  Did you scan for the presence of virus/malware content on the computer?
  

The issue might occur due to the presence of virus/malware content on the computer. Scan the PC for the presence of virus/malware by running the antivirus security software. Run the antivirus security software twice to detect and confirm the presence
