  1. My documents and AppData is being compressed on each startup.


    Have this annoying problem, where 2 of my folders automatically gets "compressed" (two arrows pointing as an icon).

    This ofcourse is a problem on "my documents" and "appdata", as this is folders that is used by a lot of programs. Its only these 2 folders that gets compressed, and all the contents of them.


    I think this started 3 days ago, as i installed the following update, but cant be sure:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4467682/windows-10-update-kb4467682


    So i have to uncompress them everytime i start windows for programs to find their stuff, and games to find their save files.


    Any suggestions on where to start?

    So far ive checked that the drive doesnt have compression on (CMy documents and AppData is being compressed on each startup. :), and uncompressed them several times.

    :)

    My documents and AppData is being compressed on each startup.

    'System and compressed memory' on ASUS G75VY notebook load CPU always on 16%

    thank you for your reply!

    here what I did:

    1. disabled non-microsoft services, disabled all applications in startup list

    result: after restart "system and compressed memory" still gain 17% CPU

    2. ran PC into safe mode ( just to see what happens )

    result: CPU load is 0% for "system and compressed memory"

    3. ran PC in normal mode

    result: CPU load is 0% for "system and compressed memory"

    as we can see from step 1, the problem probably is not in applications ?

    what would you suggest in this case ?

    looking forward for your answer
