Windows 10: 100% Disk error

Hi, I'm a student and I have a PC for educational purpose. ,2-3 months ago, there was a outbreak of COVID-19 again in Vietnam and I had to stay at home. I had to study online. My PC was very slow and I was late for some online classes. I have searched in some forum. They said that the cause was 100% disk error. I used Defragment tools and it was solved. But after 2-3 days, it happened again. Can someone help me to fix it completely?

How to Fix 100% Disk Usage Error in Windows 10

 

Disk is always at 100%

Hi Richard,

Some bugs or disk drive errors may cause high disk utilization. If your task manager shows 100% disk utilization, you may need to optimize Windows by following these troubleshooting methods:

Disable Windows Search

Some bug in Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 causes some "search loop" that causes maximum utilization of your disk. To disable
Windows Search, kindly follow these steps:

• Press Windows + R to open Run.
• Type services.msc and press Enter.
• Scroll down to find Windows Search, right-click it, and select
  Properties.
• Change the Startup type to Disabled and save the changes.

Disable Superfetch Service

Superfetch service has been identified as a possible cause of 100% disk utilization on Windows 10. To disable Superfetch service, kindly follow these steps:

• Press Windows + X and select Command Prompt (Admin).
• Type net.exe stop superfetch and press Enter.
• Wait for a minute for the changes to apply and close the Command Prompt.

Let us know how things goes.

Regards.
