Windows 10: Known Windows 10 high disc usage bug

Since I upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10, I've been having issues with my system freezing and then sometimes going to the 'blue' screen. I started running task manager and I can see that the disc usage spikes to 100% intermittently and then comes back down. This is without me doing anything. Sometimes it never comes back down from the 100% usage and then the system crashes.

I've seen multiple posts about this issue and have tried all of the suggestions without success. Apparently, this is a known Windows 10 bug that has been around for many years. My question is why doesn't Microsoft fix this? If windows 10 is going to be the last version and windows 7 is no longer supported, you would think that Microsoft would be doing their best to make windows 10 rock solid. I just don't understand why this issue is not being addressed.

Windows Explorer high CPU Usage in Windows 10

Hi Andrew,

Usually, too many background processes can boost your CPU usage. Since you already disabled the apps that are not necessary on startup,
we suggest checking the applications running once you have successfully boot Windows 10. To do this, simply follow the steps below:

• Click on the Start button and type Task Manager on the search box.
• On the Task Manager window, you should see the programs running.
• Click on the More details drop-down button to see the total number of apps running and their real-time CPU usage.

From there, you should see what applications are running on high CPU usage. You can also
restart the Windows Management Instrumentation service and see if your CPU performance will improve. Follow the instructions below to restart the service:

• Click on the Start button and type Services.
• Scroll down the list and look for Windows Management Instrumentation.
• Right click on it and select Restart.

Should you have further questions, please let us know.

 

Very high Memory and disc usage in Windows 10

After upgrading to windows 10 a month ago ,my laptop has become very slow due to high memory and disc usage. Very often low memory warning is displayed and then the system runs into black screen. Sometimes the system comes back to normal but most of the
times it doesn't. Checking my task manager I found out that system and service host local system are using chunk of the memory which is sometimes as high as 2GB combined. How do I solve this problem?
