    Hey there!

    I have this laptop, and got it last summer.

    For some reason, the disk is ALWAYS at 100%.

    Why is that? It seems to be the "System" process.

  3. 100% disk usage and slow boot

    Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron laptop for about three and a half years and in recent months its boot is slow and in the first minutes, it uses 100% of the disk.
    It has some heavy programs like Visual Studio, Android Studio and more on it, but it's not always been like that.

    I use windows 10 home. The computer has Intel I5 CPU and 8GB RAM.

    Are there suggestions for improving the computer's performance?

    Disk 100%

    Hello,

    If your PC is exhibiting a slow performance or a high CPU disk usage, it could be that Windows may need to update some outdated components within the system. When you check for updates, your PC will also search for the latest device drivers, which can also
    help improve the performance of your device. We suggest that you check if there are updates waiting to be installed on your device. Here's how to check for updates in Windows 10:

    • Select the Start button, then select Settings > Update & security >
      Windows Update, select Check for updates.
    • If there are updates waiting to be installed, kindly install them, and restart your device to make sure that the updates are installed.
    • After restarting, check if the disk usage is still at 100%.

    If the issue persists, feel free to post back.
