  1. High Disk Utilization


    Hello Team,Whenever I restart my laptop is almost taking 10 to 15 mins to restart or to complete reboot process and providing access the laptop.It has been observed that disk utilization is almost 100% due to which I assume this issue could be faced.Post performing changes mentioned in below article, sometime it works as expected then again 5 to 10 days later issue re-occurs.https://www.cleverfiles.com/howto/100-disk-usage-windows-10.htmlDoes anyone have permanent resolution for this.Thanks and regardsMayur Sawant

    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!
