Hello; After Microsoft forced an update on me I have encountered a problem. I have a BOSS GT100 and am trying to connect to the BOSS Tone Studio program. This is an editing program for the pedal board. This is my problem; after the update, when I start BOSS Tone Studio it doesn't recognize my BOSS GT 100.

I get the message 'Connection Failure'. The BOSS GT100 is connected via USB 2.0.

Updates & Drivers. KATANA System Program (Ver.2.02) BOSS TONE STUDIO for KATANA Ver.2.0.0 for Windows BOSS TONE STUDIO for KATANA Ver.2.0.0 for macOS / OS X KATANA Driver Ver.1.0.0 for Windows 10 KATANA Driver Ver.1.0.0 for Windows KATANA Driver Ver.1.0.1 for macOS 10.13.

It used to work, but not anymore. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers, the software etc. I can't roll back the drivers either. I've gone into power management and turned off the choice to power the USB port down to save power.

So, they're always on. Windows tells me my device (GT100) is working properly and the latest driver is installed.

However, the driver does not work. At least that is what I assume. Without the ability to connect the device to the Tone Studio program, Microsoft has just rendered my equipment useless. OK, found a really obscure thread on your exact problem - for the thread The fix that worked on that thread is as follows: Do a search on your PC and find the file RDIF1148.INF Back it up sonewhere safe... Open RDIF1148.INF in a text editor Change the following lines from (You can copy and replace from here): [Roland.NTx86.6.2];; Windows8%RDID0148DeviceDesc%=RDID0148Install, USB VID_0582&PID_0187; GT-001 [Roland.NTx86.7];; not supported To [Roland.NTx86.6.2];; Windows8%RDID0148DeviceDesc%=RDID0148Install, USB VID_0582&PID_0187; GT-001 [Roland.NTx86.7];; Windows 10%RDID0148DeviceDesc%=RDID0148Install, USB VID_0582&PID_0187; GT-001 Well that's the advice given, I hope it works for you! _____________________________________________________________________________________ Power to the Developer!

If your Windows 10 PC has slowed almost to a halt, but you have very few programs open, something may be causing your hard drive to over-work. (Here’s.) This is a problem because when your computer’s hard drive is constantly working at or near 100%, it won’t have any spare capacity to perform other tasks, even routine operating system tasks. This slows everything down, and can make your computer totally unresponsive. This is a relatively common problem in Windows 10, but luckily, it’s usually not a hard problem to fix.

Here are a few repair methods that have helped other users fix their Windows 10 100% disk usage problem. You may not need to try them all; just start at the top of the list and work your way down. Method 1: Disable Windows Search To determine if Windows Search is causing your 100% disk usage problem, the first thing you should do is, and see if your computer speeds up. If it does, you can.

Temporarily disable Windows Search Windows Search is what makes searching files on your PC much faster. If you don’t use it at all, or you have another search app, you can disable it completely. Disabling this service will stop the indexing of all files.

But you will still have access to search, which will take longer time. Here’s how to temporarily disable Windows Search and find out if it’s the cause of your 100% disk utilization problem. (Note that Windows Search will start again when you restart your computer.) 1) On your keyboard, press the Windows logo key and X at the same time, then select Command Prompt (Admin). 2) Click Yes at the User Account Control window prompt.

3) A mostly black window will then display. This is the command prompt window. In this window, type in the following command: net.exe stop 'Windows search' 4) Hit Enter on your keyboard. Check to see if your disk usage and the performance of your computer improve. If they do, you should permanently disable Windows Search as described below. If not, move on to.

Permanently disable Windows Search If you discovered that Windows Search is causing your 100% disk usage error in Windows 10, you can permanently disable Windows Search: 1) Press Windows logo key + R at the same time, and type in services.msc. 2) Locate Windows Search option, double click it to enter its Properties window.

3) Change the Startup type to Disabled. Then click Apply and OK to save your change. Method 2: Disable SuperFetch SuperFetch helps to decrease boot time and make must-load programs more efficiently.

However, it has been identified as a potential cause of disk performance issues in Windows 8 and later versions of Windows, including Windows 10. Here’s how to stop this service: 1) On your keyboard, press Windows key and X at the same time, then choose Command Prompt (Admin). 2) Click Yes at the User Account Control prompt.

3) The command prompt will once again display. Type in the following command: net.exe stop superfetch 4) Hit Enter on your keyboard. Wait for a few minutes to see if your computer starts performing better.

Method 3 – Perform a disk check 1) On your keyboard, press Windows key and X at the same time, then choose Command Prompt (Admin). 2) Click Yes at the User Account Control prompt. 3) The command prompt will once again display. Type in the following command: chkdsk.exe /f /r 4) Hit Enter on your keyboard, then type Y to confirm that you’d like to perform the disk check the next time you restart your computer. Please make sure you have closed all of your applications first. Sony Vegas Pro Keygen And Crack. IMPORTANT: Disk check will start the next time you boot your PC and it might take some time to complete (could be a day for some).

If, when you restart, you don’t have time to wait for the disk check to complete, you can skip it. You’ll need to reschedule it again, as described above, though. Method 4: Reset Virtual Memory Virtual memory can be considered an extension of your computer’s physical memory. It’s a combination of RAM and a portion of your hard drive. When the RAM isn’t enough to perform a task, Windows will temporarily store files in virtual memory, then swap them back to RAM when required.

To reset virtual memory: 1) On your keyboard, press Windows key and Pause/ Break key at the same time. Then choose Advanced System Settings on the left panel. 2) Go to the Advanced tab, then click Settings. 3) Go to the Advanced tab again, and choose Change in the Virtual memory section.

4) Ensure the Automatically manage paging file size for all drives checkbox is NOT ticked. 5) Select your windows drive (the hard drive or partition that has Windows installed on it – usually C:), and enter an Initial size and Maximum size for your virtual memory: • Initial size – This value varies, depending on your computer. If you’re not sure what value to use, just enter whatever the number is in the Recommended category. • Maximum size – Don’t set this value too high. It should be about 1.5 times the size of your physical RAM. A PC with 4 GB (4096 MB) of RAM should have no more than about 6,144 MB virtual memory (4096 MB x 1.5). Once you’ve entered your virtual memory values, click Set, then click OK to continue.

6) Clear all your computer’s ‘temp’ files. On your keyboard, press Windows key and R at the same time, then in the Run form, type temp and hit Enter. This will invoke Windows Explorer with your Temp folder open, showing you all the temp files on your computer. 7) Select all the files in the Temp folder and delete them. Method 5: Disable Antivirus Software temporarily If you’ve installed antivirus or anti-malware programs such as Norton, Kaspersky, AVG, Avast Behavior Shield or Malwarebytes, you should temporarily turn them off or disable them to see if they’re causing your disk usage problem. If your computer’s disk usage returns to normal when they’re off, you should contact the vendor of the software to see if they can provide some help. Note that Microsoft has its own default anti-malware, Windows Defender.

It’s automatically enabled even if you also have other antivirus applications installed. Even if you disable your other antivirus programs, Windows Defender is always there for you during that certain time range. So, no need to worry too much about temporarily turning antivirus off. If you use other antivirus and anti-malware systems, please consult their user manuals to learn how to disable them. You might also find these links useful: Method 6: Change the settings in Google Chrome & Skype For some, a particular combination of Skype and Google Chrome browser settings causes the 100% disk usage problem in Windows 10. Here’s how to fix those settings: Note that the wording on different versions of Chrome could be slightly different. 1) In Google Chrome, click the three-dot icon at the top right corner and choose Settings.

2) Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Advanced. 3) In the Privacy and Security category, make sure Use a prediction service to load pages more quickly is turned off.

4) Make sure that your Skype is not running. 5) In Windows Explorer, go to C: Program Files (x86) Skype Phone.

6) Right-click Skype.exe and select Properties. 7) Go to the Security tab and select Edit. 8) Click ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES and tick the Allow checkbox for Write. Then click Apply, then OK to save your change. Now check your disk usage in Task Manager to see if this has resolved the problem.

Method 7: Fix your StorAHCI.sys driver Note: A million thanks to our warm-hearted reader Javier for the following solution. If you have tried all the above methods but still no avail, please see if this additional one helps. The Windows 10 100% disk usage problem might also be caused by some Advanced Host Controller Interface PCI-Express (AHCI PCIe) models running with the inbox StorAHCI.sys driver due to a firmware bug. Here’s how to determine if this is your problem and fix it: 1) Open Device Manager by pressing Windows logo key and X at the same time to choose Device Manager. 2) Expand the IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers category, and double-click the AHCI controller. 3) Go to the Driver tab and click Driver Details.

If you can see storahci.sys stored in a path of system32 folder, then you are running the inbox AHCI driver. 3) Close the Driver Details window and go to Details tab. From the drop-down menu, select Device Instance Path. Make note of the path, starting from VEN_. 4) Type regedit in the search box of Start panel, then hit Enter on your keyboard to run Registry Editor.

Then go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE System CurrentControlSet Enum PCI Device Parameters Interrupt Management MessageSignaledInterruptProperties The here refers to the name you see from step 2). The differs on different machines.

5) Double click the MSISupported key and change the value to 0. 6) Restart your computer after the change. Method 8: Update your device drivers If the steps above don’t resolve your 100% disk usage problem in Windows 10, it may be caused by a device driver. You can automatically update all your device drivers to the latest correct version with. Driver Easy will automatically recognize your system and find the correct drivers for it.

You don’t need to know exactly what system your computer is running, you don’t need to risk downloading and installing the wrong driver, and you don’t need to worry about making a mistake when installing. You can update your drivers automatically with either the FREE or the Pro version of Driver Easy. But with the Pro version it takes just 2 clicks (and you get full support and a 30-day money back guarantee): 1) and install Driver Easy. 2) Run Driver Easy and click Scan Now button.

Driver Easy will then scan your computer and detect any problem drivers. 3) Click the Update button next to any flagged device to automatically download and install the correct version of that driver (you can do this with the FREE version). Or click Update All to automatically download and install the correct version of all the drivers that are missing or out of date on your system (this requires the – you’ll be prompted to upgrade when you click Update All). Appendix Here’s how to identify if 100% disk usage is actually your problem. Note that the following steps may take some time if your hard drive is being over-worked. 1) Type “ task manager” in the Windows search bar and select Task Manager: 2) In the Processes tab, look at the% at the top of the Disk column.

If it’s 100% (or it’s close and it has a red background), something is causing your hard disk to over-work. I got this issue in the last months, and apparentelly is fixed on my Thinkpad X240. Whatever I did – and I did ALL these instructions – worked for like 1 or 2 days and the 100% disk usage was back. Several times my X240 was stucked, and I needed to do a hard reset. What REALLY change this situation of upgrade the Windows 10 to the LASTEST version: the Windows 10 Fall Creators Edition is absolutelly the best W10 version that I ever got it. Disk usage now is almost of the time on 0% to less than 10% – even when I open Chrome or Word, it goes to near 100% but in 2 or 3 seconds, falls back. And I even using the original HD (Toshiba 7200 rpm), it´s not a SSD yet.

I strongly reccomend the upgrade, because that was the only thing that really fixed the 100% disk usage issue, at least for me. But I reconfigured the new version with all these steps again, just for garantee that I am using a clean and stable OS. These hints here are absolutelly fantastic for a W10 user. The link that I used to download the W10 Fall Creators Edition was: Hope this can help other people like me that wa already getting nervous about using the laptop with this issue. If none of the above worked follow me: 1. Open task manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) 2.

Right-click Disk and set Resources Values for disk from values to percents 3. Closely monitor the processes with high% disk usage 4. Click on the arrow next to the most suspicious process to view its service 5. Open Services (Windows key + R brings up Run, type services.msc and hit Enter key) 6. Find the suspicious service and stop it, if disk usage instantaneously drops then, 7. Ao 9.00 Antenna Optimizer Program on this page. Right-click the culprit service, click properties and permanently disable it 8.

On my system Compattelrunner.exe was the culprit. This is related to application experience and turning it off immediately dropped my usage to 1%. The link that helped with relevant text in quotes is below ” Using procexp.exe, I found that the offending process was started from a scheduled task, namely, Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser, which is found in Computer Manager under Task SchedulerMicrosoftWindowsApplication ExperienceProgramDataUpdater. There are three tasks in that folder.

The description of the task says “Collects program telemetry information if opted-in to the Microsoft Customer Experience Improvement Program.”, so I suppose we can simply opt-out from the telemetry program and this should not run anymore. I believe that is in Settings->Privacy->Feedback.” •. Antimalware Executable can also the main cause of this problem. You would have scheduled Windows Defender to do so. So I would suggest you to unschedule Windows Defender to do so and check. Follow these steps: a. Press Windows key + W and type administrative tools.

Select Administrative Tools and select Task Scheduler. Follow this path in the left hand pane.

Task Scheduler Library/Microsoft/Windows/Windows defender d. Uncheck all the boxes under Idle, Power and Network. Now it won’t scan your computer. I did all of the recomended steps here, and nothing worked. Even swapped out the SATA cable. I also did a clean install from recovery wiping everything.

But that was no good either. Mine went to 100% for no reason that I could find after every 10 minutes and stayed there. What seem to have solved it was to completely wipe the SDD by deleting the partitions. Including the recovery partition, reformat the drive and download a new ISO from Microsoft, burn it on a memory stick and install from that.

My system has been stable for 3 hours now. Will report back tomorrow, or when it crashes again. I disabled Superfetch, and Windows Search, and Windows Update. I rebooted and the problem remained. I restarted, and the problem had still remained.

I then downloaded Microsoft’s Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool (MSRT). At first, as it begins to scan files, it is moving at a snails pace due to the 100% Hard Drive activity. However, after some time, it seems to have disabled many service programs, and then it takes off like a rocket. Once finished, I guess it re-enables the service programs, and does so in the appropriate order. The search itself had found no viruses.

However, the 100% Hard Drive activity had completely stopped. So I rebooted and It was still OK. I then restarted, and it was still OK. Worked for me! After that, I went to power options and changed from balanced to high performance to see if that would improve things even more. Well the 100% hard drive problem instantly returned.

So I reset it back to balanced, and the drive problem instantly vanished. So this one is a no go for me. It takes my computer about 2 1/2 minutes to sort everything out and bring the hard drive activity from 100% to 0% after power up, but I can live with that. I called Microsoft Support, and he basically said, put your hands in the air and hand me your money. $189.00, to be exact. I said bye bye. I had done a clean install, and it did not help.

Near the end of the install it told me that it was having a problem starting my PC and said that this may be due to needing Windows Updates. I was given no choice but to carry on. The update(s) were the darn problem in the first place, so I was led right back to square one. The new Windows 10 Pro installed moved at a snails pace. Anyhow, as noted above, I managed to get the computer Windows OS up and working again.

I found a permanent and complete solution to the 100% disk usage problem (sometimes it was 99% disk usage problem) by contacting my computer manufacturer, in this case, Asus. They said reinstalling Windows fixed it, at least on Asus machines and although I was reluctant to do it since that’s the boilerplate Microsoft answer, I was surprised that it actually did the trick. I then implemented the above suggestions and my 3-4 year old computer is working like brand new, no problems at all with speed or cpu or memory usage. This is a great guide and I’ve given all the steps in here a try, along with many other tweaks from various guides across the web.

I was beginning to get to more advanced options and was about to give up and just reload my pc (time vs effort). I actually turned superfetch and windows search BACK ON and saw an instant drop in disk usage. Keep in mind I’ve had superfetch and windows search OFF for about 2 months while I attempted various ‘fixes’ and just kinda dealt with it. Who knows, give it a shot •. OP, Thanks so much for putting all this information together.

I spent days working on the in-laws’ system after finally getting the Windows 10 upgrade to work, only to have it freeze about ten minutes after booting, with disk usage at 99% or 100%, and nothing visibly responsible for the usage in Task Manager or Resource Manager. I used the Show Services trick after following the additional links, added all the I/O columns to the view, and started stopping services. I finally got lucky on the first one I tried – Afcdpsrv.exe (Acronis Nonstop Backup Service). When I stopped this service and set it to disabled, the problem finally stopped.

The installed version of Acronis TrueImage 2014 is 17.0.4515. There is an update patch available – I am not sure if it resolves this issue, but I will likely just uninstall the software, as it is not being used.

Are you sure that this only happens after the update? What was the update exactly? An update on the device drivers or the Microsoft Creators update? If possible, please consider performing a system restore on his laptop. The system restore feature is shut down by default, so he or she needs to turn it on before this problem occurs. If you need more help, here is a post for you and your friend: There are instructions of refresh and reset in the above post.

If system restore is out of the picture, please have a try at performing a refresh. Hi, I just wanted to say thanks for this thread. I tried basically everything suggested here in the article and comments, and nothing worked.

Finally, I replaced the SATA cables to my two HDDs as user “A S” suggested, and it seems to be fixed the issue. I was skeptical it was going to work when I first read it, but I was ready to scrap my entire computer at that point, so I figured, what the heck, I’ll try it, and so far everything seems to be working great.

So my suggestion to other users having the same issue and nothing else is working, try replacing the SATA cables before attributing the issue to faulty HDD. Hi everybody. I had an annoying 100% disk activity problem on my main “C:” SDD drive (I also have 2 additional HDD with no issued) which appeared after 3 to 5 minutes of logging to windows rendering my PC almost completely useless. Although 100% disk activity, disk usage was only about 5%, so a service or program causing the problem was very unlikely and most likely there was a driver problem. I did’t see that so clearly at first, so I tried everything on this list unsuccessfully. But finally I did solve my problem by upgrading my Intel SATA AHCI drivers to the latest release.

That was kind of problematic because I upgraded to windows 10 from windows 7 with IDE SATA Controller so I had to follow online instructions on “How to Enable AHCI in Windows 8 and Windows 10 after Installation” in order to switch to windows’s standard SATA AHCI driver first and then upgrade to Intel’s latest driver using Driver Easy. It was only this last step the one that made my problem go away. Hope this help someone else! Please try the steps below to see if they help. 1) First we need you to launch your Windows 10 into Safe Mode.

It seems that you are unable to start your computer now, it is suggested that you perform a hard reboot. Press and hold the power button on your computer until it powers off. Press the power button on your computer to turn it on. Repeat step a) and b) until you see Please wait during the boot. It usually takes three repeats (more than three repeats if this is not the first time that you did this) for it to come up. You need to try until you can see the Please wait coming out.

Follow the path: See advanced repair options >Troubleshoot >Advanced options >Startup Settings >Restart >click F4. If you can log into the desktop, please: a. Press Windows key and R at the same time; b. Type msconfig and hit Enter. From the System Configuration dialog box, click the Services tab; d.

Check Hide all Microsoft services and select Disable all e. Navigate to Startup tab and choose Open Task Manager f.

On the Startup tab in Task Manager, select each item and click Disable g. Exit Task Manager h. On the System Configuration dialog box, click OK, and then restart your computer Once you are in the Clean Boot environment, it is now time to pinpoint the service causing the problem: a.

Enter System Configuration dialog box as before, and navigate to Service tab b. Check Hide all Microsoft services c. Select the upper half of check boxes from the list and clear the others d. Click OK and then reboot the system These steps will help you narrow the cause of your problem. If you can identify and locate the problem, you can disable the related programs or uninstall them. Also, you can try run a SFC scan: Hope this is helping you. Hi, Sorry that I wasn’t making myself clear enough.

To figure out what number you should set your virtual memory to, first you need to know the size of the RAM running on your PC. You can find this piece of information in Control Panel >System and Security >System. You should be able to see an option named Installed memory (RAM). Mark down this figure.

For example, my RAM is 16GB, so the figure I should enter in the Maximum size box is (1024 x 16 x 1.5 = 24576 MB). The box for Initial size has already been filled automatically, you don’t need to worry about it. If there is anything we could to to help, please feel free to ask.

Hello all – I have had this problem now for a quite a while. If I left the computer at the 100% disk it did sometimes sort itself out and was usable but then next time 100% again. So I started to apply the Option 5 but at the point where I was meant to highlight ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES – this line was NOT THERE! But today my wife said that Skype on her phone had updated and I wondered if there was a new version for my SONY computer using Windows 10.

So I updated (took a while as the old Skype was still hogging the disk) but eventually and after a reboot Skype is now running OK. So get the latest update – It MIGHT fix it. Give me my old mainframe computer – it never did this sort of thing!

Having disabled Windows search and Superfetch my son was still getting this problem on his i7 6700 Asus laptop with 1TB 7200rpm hard drive. Solution: I bought a brand new laptop which worked fine and was blazing fast until he activated his OneNote account on it. The new laptop immediately slowed to a crawl and showed the 100% disk usage error. I asked him to reverse all the steps he had taken in setting up the laptop, last one first. The culprit is OneNote published by Microsoft Corporation and now included as part of the Windows 10 OS. I dug out the old laptop and booted it, It works fine until I start OneNote, disk usage immediately hits 100%, and when I End Task One Note it falls back to normal usage levels.

I did this a few times and the result is always the same OneNote = 100% usage. I’ve been trying every solution on the web for months now.

Nothing has worked for me. None of the above. But I CRACKED IT THIS MORNING!!! Windows 10 seems to be super sensitive for the RAM configuration. I had 8GB + 2GB and it all showed as usable RAM in properties and Belarc.

But my harddrive kept running at 100% all the time and sometime machine was unusable. But I took a chance and removed the 2GB and VOILA! Machine ran at full speed on one 8GB module without swapping to harddrive 100% of the time. Then I went a step further and swapped the two RAM modules to opposite slots and IT WORKED.

All 10 GB working at full speed now! I’m kinda over the edge to smash my notebook into some wall have tried everything, Everything but disk usage remains at 100%.

I have to leave the notebook for half an hour whenever it freezes, till the System process releases the disk. And mostly no processes are using much of disk but still usage is 100%. Its a Sony Vaio with an i7 and 12G RAM. I changed security from windows defender to avast/tried disabling, ran disk checkup, disk fragmentation,disabled Windows Search, disabled superfetch service, virtual memory is high enough, changed the settings in google n skype, don’t even use skype and tried other options too like updated All the drivers that needed to be updated.

If there are any more solutions, please share! Jim, try this: I’ve been trying every solution on the web for months now. Nothing has worked for me. None of the above. But I CRACKED IT THIS MORNING!!! Windows 10 seems to be super sensitive for the RAM configuration.

I had 8GB + 2GB and it all showed as usable RAM in properties and Belarc. But my harddrive kept running at 100% all the time and sometime machine was unusable. But I took a chance and removed the 2GB and VOILA! Machine ran at full speed on one 8GB module without swapping to harddrive 100% of the time.

Then I went a step further and swapped the two RAM modules to opposite slots and IT WORKED. All 10 GB working at full speed now! I’ve had 95-100% Disk usage for a while now.

I happened to notice a Windows Compatibility Telemetry running on the task manager a few times and just once, after months of dealing w/this issue, I noticed it was on the top of the list for usage for a moment. I googled & found this website: Instantly I was back down to 2 to 5% disk usageRunning very intense games on high settings, multiple programseverything. I can get it up to 7%, but no higher. FINALLYIt’s taken almost a year, but my computer is finally cooperating properly again. Okay so I have completed all of these steps and there is no change. I even tried some of the solutions in the comments such as disabling adobe flash player but that still didn’t work. I have heard about a problem to do with windows cumulative update [Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 for x64-based Systems (KB3201845)] not installing properly.

I don’t know if this has anything to do with the disk problem or not. When i go to settings/check for updates. It takes ages to find it and when it does it get’s stuck at 0%.

I don’t know wether this could be a virus causing the disk issue or not. I disabled malwarebytes as said in the steps above so i haven’t done a check for any viruses yet. Do you think resetting the pc (removing all files and doing a re-install of windows) could be a solution to the disk problem and the windows updates? This.exe file is installed with Intel(R) Wireless Bluetooth(R) device driver. Some users report that this could be a sign of virus on your computer. Please use your trusted antivirus program to scan and see if you can detect any possible virus. If found any, remove them completely.

Or you can reinstall this device driver from device manager manually. First download the intel bluetooth driver from the support website (or you can use Driver Easy to scan and download it for you), then go to device manager to uninstall this device driver. Restart your computer after this. If your PC automatically helps you detect for and download the bluetooth driver, than you are good, if not, you need to double click the downloaded file and run the installation.

If you find this process too much, you can use Driver Easy to automatically detect and download this device driver for you. Please keep us updated if you find the suggestions helpful. I had my disk usage that mostly stayed between 80% to 100% and many times the pc would freeze, requiring hard-reboot. I implemented the settings yesterday. The disk usage still goes up after reboot but only for a few minutes, then comes down. So far, no freezes. I noticed in my task manager that the task which causes high disk usage is Service Host:Local Service (Network Restricted).

This task periodically starts Superfetch service (the service appears as sub-task in the main task-list). During the time Superfetch is on, the disk usage becomes very high, before reverting to normal in a few minutes. Stopping Superfetch resolves this temporarily, until the next reboot, when it starts Superfetch again. I am going to observe for sometime. If I get any more freezes, I will disable Superfetch permanently by going to Services (run as Admin. I had the same exact issue. I followed all instructions and nothing worked.

(I even uninstalled Skype and Chrome, and disabled virtual memory entirely.) I tracked it down to the Windows Compatibility Telemetry process. Once I killed that, things went from 99% to like 12%. I then went and permanently disabled these two processes: “Connected User Experiences and Telemetry” and “dmwappushsvc” by right clicking on the start menu, choosing “computer management,” then expanding “services and applications” and disabling both processes. Please try the following procedure: 1) Run Command Prompt as administrator.

2) Type “ wpr-cancel” (no quotation marks) and hit Enter. 3) Then go to Task Manager. Go to Services bar, locate DiagTrack option (you can press key D to faster locate this option), right click it and choose Stop. Or you can try this permanent fix: 1) Run Command Prompt as administrator. 2) Type “ sc stop DiagTrack” (no quotation marks) and hit Enter. 3) Type “ sc delete DiagTrack” (no quotation marks) and hit Enter.

4) Open Task Scheduler (by typing task scheduler in start search bar), then go to Task Scheduler Library >Microsoft, delete the following items: Everything under “Application Experience” Everything under “Autochk” Everything under “Customer Experience Improvement Program” Under “Disk Diagnostic” delete only the “Microsoft-Windows-DiskDiagnosticDataCollector” Please let me know if it helps. The first time I did all of this it worked, I restarted my PC and the problem came back.

I tried everything again, but it didn’t seem to work.I couldn’t do Skype step, since I don’t even have Skype. I’ve had this problem for a long time, but I remember that this didn’t happen when I first built this PC. My PC is not bad nor old. If someone has a solution please help me, I get stressed out no much, my PC got to the point of giving me a blue screen and after a restart telling me that i had a disk problem.

Also, if you can see an updated BIOS for your computer on your computer manufacturer, please download and update it too. You mentioned that Google Chrome is one of the applications that is hogging the disk usage, have you tried upgraded it as well? Or have you changed the settings as instructed?

Please reply at your earliest convenience the update of your situation so we could provide further help.
