Windows 10: 100% High Disk Usage Due To "SysMain Service" Running In Background

Hi, I am a windows 10 user. From past many months I am facing a issue where whenever I start working my laptop suddenly I face lag and hang issues. My system just gets hanged for few mins and I can't do anything. When it gets fixed, I go to task manager and see that my disk usage has almost reached its peak 100% and the CPU usage also increases gradually. Even the RAM usage also. And I get to see that SysMain service keeps running in the background and I don't have any control over it. It literally consumes everything and I can't work properly. For this problem to get fixed I have to always restart my laptop. Then only it gets fixed. So do you have any solution for it as to how to reduce the usage or completely stop that service? Please help because I can't work properly and the performance just reduces. Even it consumes most of my internet.

Windows 10 - High Disk Usage - 100%

I am seeing high disk usage, often between 90 and 100%.

I have tried adjusting some settings, some help temporarily but after a restart I have the same high disk usage issue.

• Disable superfetch
• Disable Windows Search
• Disable Windows Update
• Disable Geolocation Services
• Disable Network Services
• Manually adjust paging file size for programs and background services
• Got rid of apps (no chrome, got rid of bloat like Amazon, etc.)

The main user of disk usage appears to be Service Host Local System 13 and it uses anywhere between .5 and 10 MB.

Below is a snip of the task manager. Computer is Dell Inspiron 15 - 3000 series. 4 GB RAM, 64 bit operating system and AD A4 processor if that helps.

Any ideas on how to resolve the high disk usage issue permanently?

Extremely high (100%) Disk Usage - Windows 10

Hello,

From sometime in October, after an update, there have been periods, sometimes intermittent, sometime persisting for a long time, when Disk usage spikes up to 100%, and makes a lot of things unusable.

I did some researching, and disabled a bunch of stuff, like Windows notifications, Windows search, background intelligent transfer and superfetch, even OneDrive, but even on Windows 10 version 1511, Disk usage spikes to 100%, the offending application / service
being anything from System to memory compression to 3rd party applications...

This is becoming extremely irritating, on certain occasions, the PC has been virtually unusable due to disk usage, and Windows often displays wretched performance.

The PC is a high powered laptop, and the drivers are updated as per latest OEM specifications.

Performing a clean boot did not solve the problem. Sometimes cutting off the internet drops the high usage, but other times, it does not help either. I have run out of ideas on how to solve this issue. Chkdsk and other disk checks do not report any error.

Could anyone suggest a remedy for this? Barring a system reset...it used to work fine before an update in mid - October. Subsequent updates have had no positive results. Even this post took quite some time to type and actually post, because of the disk usage
spike.

Thanks a lot.
