    Facebook notifications were already disabled. The slow disk operations happened even when Chrome was closed. I disabled the setting like you suggested. I just used videos as an example of how I know the hard drive is slowing down. Opening documents stored on the hard drive seems to take forever and it's not just limited to watching videos. I believe that this problem is what caused my computer to freeze up in the past. This computer is a few weeks old and had a clean install of Windows 10.

    Just saw your edit, are you suggesting that I upgrade to the anniversary edition? These problems surfaced when 1511 was pushed?
