  1. 100% Disk, Only Windows Installer Running


    My computer has been super slow and buggy lately, so I checked the task manager and my disk is at 100%. The only thing it shows as running in the background is Windows Installer. I tried to disable a few things like windows search and superfetch. I also ran a check disk. No luck. Any advice?

    Edit: system is also running at about 25-40%

    Clean install, disk usage at 100%

    I've seen that article. and I am in fact not running that driver. I followed the steps and it does not appear in the list.

  3. Disk Usage at 100% with nothing running

    My PC is running Windows 10 with the latest updates but has suddenly become unusable with disk usage staying at 100% even with nothing running and just the same processes listed in Task Manager as before the problems
    started. I've tried a few suggestions found in online forums - disabling Windows Search and Superfetch, adjusting page file size, etc. but nothing has done the trick yet. I don't have any outside anti-virus software installed. I read about the potential MSI
    issue but don't have IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers listed in the Device Manager. Finally, it seems to boot up normally and will have periods where the disk usage drops and it's usable but those moments are brief and it inevitably goes back up to 100% usage.
