    Disk usage continuously jumps to 100 even after clean install


    I recently bought a windows laptop, i noticed a lag in startup of windows, and when i started installing apps i noticed a significant lag in those. Checking the task manager i saw disk going to 100 percent mostly because of system process. Tried various fixes, disabling startup programs but nothing seems to work. I clean installed windows twice and this still is the problem when playing certain games. On my other laptop these things work fine even though it has a worse processor. Could this be because of physical defect in the HDD or something?

    :)

    100% disk usage and memory usage

    Hi,

    100% disk usage and memory usage can be caused by a software corruption, running application running on the background and malware or virus infection.

    For us to properly isolate the issue and provide an appropriate resolution, kindly answer the questions below:

    • Did the issue happen after installing the Fall Creators?
    • Did you receive any error messages?
    • Can you send us the screenshot of the Task Manager showing the 100% disk usage and memory usage?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    For isolation purposes, please perform a clean boot to see if the same issue will occur. Refer to this
    article for more information on how to perform a clean boot
    in Windows.

    Looking forward to your response.
