    Using Google Chrome makes my disk go up to 50% usage.


    This is annoying because it makes surfing and watching youtube completely impossible. It freezes my whole computer. And i have an awful feeling win 10 is doing something.
    Cause when i look into performance monitor the first 2 things that are using the most of my disk are both system.

    Currently im using brave and nothing like that is happening. Now, id like to know what this is cause its very weird. I dont have this problem in any other application except chrome.
    Also windows was checking for updates like 10 minutes before it started freezing. I also disabled all extentions and tried things like adding --no-sandbox in the shortcut but nothing fixed it. It also never goes beyond 50% but it freezes the heck out of my pc.

    :)

    problem uninstalling google chrome

    Hi,

    Since you already uninstalled Google Chrome using the Programs and Features, Google notifications may still be running in the background processes. We suggest that you follow these steps on how to end the Google Chrome process:

    • On your keyboard, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete.
    • Select Task Manager.
    • Under Processes, locate Google Notifications or Google Chrome.
    • Right click on them and select End Task.
    • Double check under Programs and Features if Google Chrome is completely gone.

    Let us know if these steps worked.

    disk usage stuck at 50%

    started today having a huge issue as my disk usage is stuck at 50% when running apps or games! I have tried a few methods none have worked. I have seen quite a few people with the same issue and not sure if the methods that were suggested helped them or
    not, but they definately didn't help me! I have ran clean boot, launched into safe mode, done disk checks etc. Please help it's very frustrating!
