  2. Windows 10 high disk usage startup

    Hi Yousef,

    Thank you for your response.

    If there are multiple startup programs enabled in the system which could be causing the high disk usage. Startup programs are programs that launches automatically when you boot the computer.

    These programs are either enabled manually or while installing. I would suggest you to try the steps below and check if it helps.

    • Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc keys to open Task manager.
    • Click "Startup" tab.
    • Under startup tab, Disable any unnecessary Programs that you do not need during startup.
    • Restart the computer and check whether the issue persist or not.

    Please get back to us with an update on this issue, we will be happy to assist you further.

    Thank you.
