    Note: reports of Service Host: Local System using a lot of disk resources don't seem to point to a solution...
    Sfc /scannow & DISM haven't helped, according to those reports for anyone reading this.

    Try configuring this to off as shown.

    100% usage on disk

    Sorry, I'll make that clearer- I was thinking of another thread, and thinking you'd used this before.

    So.. download and install and run the free MS Process explorer and post a screenshot like this:

    so we can see the process tree under it.

    At the moment when I open my task manager my disk usage seems to be fine but later on it will jump to 100%

    Ok, thanks- when you see that process again, capture it in a Process Explorer screenshot.

    Feel free to research this yourself of course..
    Service Host: Local System (Network Restricted disk usage high
    -> quite a few results.

    Some conclude with disabling superfetch. Somehow I doubt that's actually finding the cause.

    These columns (green ellipse) should identify the precise process or processes using disk.

    Can you also disable Norton temporarily (you can disconnect from the internet)?

    I/O read/ write is something rather different:
