Windows 10: My disk usage goes to 100 when I load a youtube video.

When I watch a youtube video my disk usage spikes from 99 to 100 and stays there. If I pause the video for a few minutes then unpause it the disk usage does not go to 100. Also the spiking is not as bad if the video is short 15minute -. I use Google Chrome to watch videos. The only extension i have is adblock. Please help me!!!!! (By the way if I don't reply soon it is because I am currently busy with school and mid terms so please have patience with me.)
Edit: I have found out that anything I do will make my disk usage 100. The only way to keep it down is to do nothing on my laptop.

My computer freezes while watching a video.

Well I guess do the newest windows update from a few days ago or restore your system back to before this started happening.

I would have to be there and check out many things to try and find the issue.

Open task manager to the Performance tab.

start a video and when it starts freezing, look at C:\ and see if the drive is close to or at 100% usage.

I had some updates to do but it's the same.

And also yes, my C:\ drive is used 95-100% while i am on Facebook, in Opera or Chrome.

But while I watch a video on youtube my CPU has a ~12% usage, GPU a max 7% usage and my disk barely gets at 6%.

When I try to play something with media player I can't even check the disk usage because it freezes almost instantly.

 

100% Disc Usage

I recently bought a new laptop for several days running smoothly. but now I do not know why my disk usage is always 100%. recently hosted service: local system is the most widely took my disk usage. when i play games like left4dead2 always lag because my
disk usage is 100%. Sometimes 'system and compressed memory' and 'windows audio device graph isolation' also took my disk usage until i couldn't watch Youtube.

I'm running windows 10 on Asus x550j and for anti-virus i'm using '360 total security'.

sorry english is not my primary language

 

Try a different browser. Chrome is known to have some issues with w10, namely with "system and compressed memory".

 

I have tried with firefox but it is still the same

 

The problem fixed itself I have no idea how but it did.
