Windows 10: BSOD and disk drive stuck at 100% after Windows 10 Update

I'm experiencing a problem where my disk drive gets stuck at 100% and I'm getting the BSOD after an attempted Windows 10 update. It's a new build and there previously a few times were a BSOD had occurred, but I thought it had been resolved. Now after the update they have returned. Some updates did not complete, but I'm afraid to try them again because currently after the disk drive is not at 100%. Would appreciate any help that can be provide in getting this resolved.

Disk bloat in Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

Is it my imagination, or does the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update consume an additional 20-30GB of disk space over the previous Creators Update release? Unfortunately, I didn't log my disk usage before the upgrade, but now my C: drive has 56GB of stuff, and I know it wasn't anywhere near that full before. I've run "Disk Cleanup -> Clean up system files" and selected everything on the list, including remove previous version of Windows. I also emptied my Recycle Bin, my Temp folder, \Windows\Temp folder, and \Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download folder. Finally, I ran Wise Disk Cleaner to delete assorted application garbage.

Has anyone else noticed the bloat in Fall Creators Update?

 

100% Disk with Newer HP Laptop and Windows 10

I have a relatively new HP laptop running Windows 10 that is showing 100% disk usage in Task Manager. I have tried all the commonly suggested fixes including:

• Restoring the system to factory settings and scrubbing the drives. (To ensure I didn't have a virus, malware, or corrupt driver)
• Installing all Windows updates
• Disabling windows search & smartfetch (Changed smartfetch in the registry to 0 so that it never runs)
• Disabling automatic windows updates
• Uninstalling One Drive
• Changing the size of data that can be cached to the hard disk based on the RAM
• Running diagnotics on the hardware
• Delaying start of all possible apps that don't need to run at start up

Is there some update / patch for Windows 10 that I can apply? Are there any other suggestions that someone can offer?
