    High Disk Utilization 100%

    Problem: Upgraded from 8.1 to 10. after few month noticed high disk utilization (every few seconds disk running at 100%). ShellExperienceHost.exe was causing high cpu and memory usage. Found a temporary solution by running following command

    in admin mode: net stop superfetch

    this command suspends ShellExperiencehost.exe and SearchUI.exe (Cortana?).

    I don't really use Cortana on my laptop and wondering how I can permanently disable these 2 processes as they come out from suspend to active mode after awhile.

    Are any downsides to disabling these processes completely?

    Thank you!
