  2. There is a very high CPU usage from the Microsoft(C) Register Server (regsvr32.exe).

    Thank you for the update. If in safe mode the problem does not occur and the issue occurs on normal boot, there is a possibility of a third-party program which makes Microsoft Register Server fluctuate into high CPU usage. Can you provide further information
    for us to isolate this issue further? Please answer the following questions:

    • Are there any programs recently installed on the PC?
    • Which programs currently run on your PC when the usage turns high?

    To isolate the issue as well, try to turn on the PC and don’t open any programs for a few minutes. Try to check if the CPU usage is still high. If it is, there’s a probability that it is one of the programs running on the background.

    We suggest checking this support article: Tips to improve PC performance in Windows 10 and try to follow the
    recommendations to check if this will improve the performance of the device.

    We’ll be waiting for any updates regarding the issue.

  3. High disc usage when running srtasks.exe

    SSD. Transfer rate is up to 7.2MB/s.

    This doesn't happen all the time, though the disc is constantly active. It seems W10 is always busy, busy, busy, but when disc usage gets high, it slows everything down.

    High disc usage when running srtasks.exe

    Hi, that's a low transfer rate- I've usually seen them that low at 100% disk usage with HDDs.

    Disk usage depends on your applications and configuration of course; when idle you'd hope for 0

    Attached are some notes related to low transfer rate.

    Absolute basics:
    Are your page file settings default, and do you have plenty of spare space on C: ?

    Here I'm copying a large file from C: to C: (SSD):

    Apart from the transfer rate issue, try a clean boot: is your disk usage near 0 when the PC is nominally idle?
