Windows 10: Lots of freezing, very slow loading and very high disk usage since getting Iobit ASC.

Hi guys,

Bit of a PC noob here I'm afraid. A friend recommended I give iobits advanced systemcare a try to clean and sort my PCs junk. First few days things were fine, now I'm getting really long loading screens (to put it in perspective for dota players, it takes so long for the screen to load I get auto randomed in picking phase!) and disk usage is constantly super high at 100%, normally on system or some kind of background windows program.

Another friend suggested it could be a conflict between windows defender and ASC?

Any ideas and input is greatly appreciated.

Have a good day, enjoy your scrolling

High Disk Usage

Hi all, I'm struggling with finding things to fix my high disk usage. I've spent many months searching the internet and doing all the listed suggestions like disabling SuperFetch, Windows Defender, Updating drivers, ect. and still I'm stuck with a high disk usage. Here's a screen shot I took immediately following a restart and opening up to a new Firefox window.





I have noticed Service Host: Local System takes up quite a bit of disk usage and that if I close it and let it open back up all by itself then it immediately makes my disk usage drop into a much more manageable 40-60% usage range. But eventually after a while it maxes out again and I have to close it out again. It's an annoying step just to be able to use my computer.

Also, I have noticed that after working with my mom's computer today, that her disk usage when no programs are running is only like 5%. Makes me wonder why my computer can have no programs running but my disk usage never drops below 30% and sits in the 40-60% range with spikes up over 75%.

I honestly don't know enough about computers to do much more than I already have without causing major issues. BTW, just a couple weeks ago I had to do a Windows reinstall, not a complete reinstall, just the basic reinstall they allow you to do on Windows 10 where you still keep all your personal files. Ever since that a lot of times when I try to open a process like Run or Task Manager I'll get an error message that it can't open and then I do it again and it will open the second time.

Here's a screenshot of my computer information so you can see what I'm working with here.

 

System and compressed memory high disk usage

Hi Robert,

As you are facing issues with high system and compressed memory on your device we will help you with this issue.

Provide us additional information to assist you better with this issue:

• What is the make and model of your device?
• What is the complete error message with respect to the memory when you are trying to access games?

This issue might have occurred due to applications or services running at the startup on the computer. Bad sectors on the hard drive or outdated and incompatible drivers might also cause such issues.

I suggest you to refer to the below post check if your issue matches with the same.

High disk usage on Windows and apps startup

Hi,

When I'm starting up my Windows 10, it's quite fast to get to the login screen as you would expect with my specs. After typing in my password the problems start. It's sometimes painfully slow to get all of my basic programs loaded (sound card software, google
chrome, antivirus) or even Windows so that I can start using my PC without making it to freeze completely for about a minute.

This happens because my disk usage is 100% during startup and login. It's either System (PID 4) or some else app like Avast! or Google Chrome using some disk to startup. The disk read speeds vary but I usually get 100% disk usage with 0.1-20 MB/s transfer
rates. (I can get max around 120 MB/s read speed)

Also wanted to mention that sometimes my pc completely freezes for like a minute or so with 0-0.1 MB/s disk read/write speed (or at least Task Manager says so) with again 100% disk usage.

High disk usage can also occur when Windows is loaded, but there's file transfer going on like updating Steam games or just opening Skype. Disk usage gets usually back to around 0% when the app is fully loaded or the game has been updated but this extends
startup time for almost all apps radically or slows them down.

Could this be a software issue or a hardware? Any help is appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
