I recently wrote about how to fix Windows 10 crashing issues and in this post I’ll talk about how to fix another fairly common issue, which is disk usage always at 100%. I’ve noticed that this is especially common on laptops.
[SOLVED] 100% DISK USAGE Windows 10 SOLUTION [Easy Tutorial]
Typically, disk usage will rise to or near 100% for a few seconds or even a few minutes, but then it should level off to something more reasonable (usually under 10%). If you are consistently seeing very high disk usage, that means something else is going on that is not quite right.
Before we begin, check out our YouTube channel, where we’ve created a short video that covers some of the items discussed below and demonstrates the steps on a Windows PC.
To get started, you can check your disk usage by opening the Task Manager in Windows 10. You can either right-click on the Start button and select Task Manager, or you can press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC. If you only see a small list of apps, click on More details at the bottom.
