Windows 10: 100% disk utilization

Windows 10 Dell Laptop is always running very slow due to 100% disk utilization even at startup. Task manager shows Google Chrome as the biggest utilizer even though only the home page is up. It is very frustrating as the laptop came with Windows 8 which was running smoothly. Problem started once I upgraded to Windows 10. Is there any particular service I need to disable to avoid this 100% disk utilization all the time?

100% Disk Utilization on Windows 10

I have read all the threads on 100% disk utilization for Windows 10 and don't know what else to do to solve the problem (plus some threads go on for 38 pages). It shouldn't be this hard; looking for some suggestions. Thanks!
