    Laptop's drive usage at 100% even if it was wiped clean many times


    Hello, I have a huge problem with my HP Laptop model: 15-ay173nw IntelR CoreTM i7-7500U CPU @ 2.70GHz 2.90 GHz processor with Windows 10 Home edition since a long time. It worked just well for approx. a year bought in 2018, then the whole system started to work horribly. I barely could perform any action on it. I tried all possible way to clean the drive, then after nothing from these worked I completely wiped it clean, hoping it will work. Unfortunately, now, it doesn't work like in the fabric state and I discovered the drive usage is at 100%, gets a bit lower after half an hour of

    :)

    100% disk usage and memory usage

    Hi,

    100% disk usage and memory usage can be caused by a software corruption, running application running on the background and malware or virus infection.

    For us to properly isolate the issue and provide an appropriate resolution, kindly answer the questions below:

    • Did the issue happen after installing the Fall Creators?
    • Did you receive any error messages?
    • Can you send us the screenshot of the Task Manager showing the 100% disk usage and memory usage?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    For isolation purposes, please perform a clean boot to see if the same issue will occur. Refer to this
    article for more information on how to perform a clean boot
    in Windows.

    Looking forward to your response.

    100% disk usage on Windows 10

    I have been having 100% disk usage off and on for several months. I have tried all steps from every suggestion I can find and nothing resolves the issue. I finally reset to a fresh install of Windows (wiping out all of my files and programs). Here I am
    with nothing on this computer, two programs open (Task Manager and Chrome), bouncing between 22-100% disk usage. Please help! I'm at my wits end! I have a Intel Core i7-7500 CPU @ 2.75 GHz, 2tb hard drive and 16 GB RAM

    Laptop's drive usage at 100% even if it was wiped clean many times

    100% Ram usage after clean install.

    Hello. I have crush and freeze problems when playing video games caused by 100% CPU usage and high (about 60%) memory usage.

    I preformed a clean install, wiped every drive and every partition. Installed all the needed drivers latest versions and windows updates, yet I encountered many freezes and crashes while playing. I contacted Steam, but as far as it seems, CSGO isn't the
    cause... but I might be wrong.
