    Hello, Windows is running super slow when performing simple tasks and the task manager says that the disk usage is 100%. But while saying this it also says that write/read is at under 5MB/s.However the disk goes to 60MB/s when I play a game. It takes quite some time till the game starts but then it works fine.My amateur guess is that windows somehow gets the wrong information, that the disk is at max capacity at unter 5MB/s and thus it is not speedig up.I just noticed that a process called something with "anti-malware" used over 100MB/s. That would speak against my guess.Laptop: Acer VN7-592g-

  2. Task manager showing disk usage 100%

    100% disk usage can have many causes.

    What are the top 5 processes listed in the task manager using the disk?

    Windows 10 100% disk usage in Task Manager

    Hi,
    i have dell inspiron 15 , 5000 series , OS is windows 10 64 bit.


    Recently i had a problem at the laptop:
    Disk utilization is quite constant at 100% even though no program runs parallel and there is no traffic between the hard disk and the external device.
    I searched in Google for solutions and found this issue quite common in Windows 10. I tried all the options from the solutions offered in the links but without any success :
    1. Windows 10 100% disk usage in Task Manager [SOLVED] - Driver Easy
    2. How to Fix: 100% Disk Usage on Windows 10 Task Manager


    I also tried to run a disk repair on Windows 10 and even "Reset to default" of the windows which means getting clean operating system - deleting all the files that I had and that did not help either.
    Still after booting the computer and during work the disk utilization is 100% fand the computer is very very slow.
    Do you have a solution?
    Is the hard disk malformed and is this what causes windows to show 100% disk utilization ?

    Task manager shows disk usage at hundred percent and performance is slow

    Please do this:

    1. Launch the Task Manager
    2. Click Details
    3. Click the CPU column header
    4. Make sure the biggest load is visible at the top of the list
    5. Use snippingtool.exe to create a snapshot of the frame
    6. Save the snapshot to the desktop, then attach it to your reply.
