1 more services to turn off is the windows search - the index thing is generaly useless but tryes to tag all of your data to make it easyer to find. If you ever want to search for a specific file use total commander search and that's it.
I dont have a single app on my device, but as soon as I start it up it goes immediately to 100%. I have 3 drives, (1 being an ssd) and my model is a Dell xps 8940. I reinstalled windows and cleared everything, (it took all day) then I got dell to replace my drives, but as soon as the drives are done installing I just get the issue again. I have no Idea what to do anymore as I've been with support at least 15 times this week.
Just imagine: Buying a computer and for every optional system, some labelled recommended, you can just choose to turn them on or off. Another thing, you can use the Task Manager and anything that is 100% optional would have an indicator for being able to End Task or whatever. So far, I'm happy.
Your video rocks easy to understand and follow , i was skeptical and tried it and it instantly fixed the disk usage problem google and utube were opening instantly games would open faster as well thanks so much i subscribed
It's a miracle, I was sick of the 100% Hard disk issue, and You just solved brilliantly. I must say, you are just God of the configuration for such important and valuable information... God bless you thank you so much 😊
3 videos Viewed , all infomative , no fuss, just good relative inforation. Are you able to reccomend a link for the same issues reagarding Mac? Many thanks .
Sounds good... but its not changing my second disks usage... i have ssd and HD my HD is where i download my games to and its constantly at 100percent usage when i try to install games so it freezes about 30 seconds in ..
@@GenXTech yeah i was worried about that... its about time too its almost 5 years old. Just sux because i broke my back about a month ago and havent been working so basically fml 🙃
Glad I could help. If your pc is restarting on its own, it might be due for a cleaning. remove dust on fan vents and if you can open it up and clean the dust off (make sure its not plugged in if you do that)
Could 100% disc usage also be caused by a hardware issue with hdd? My laptop experienced minor water damage and has ran slow ever since. I have upgraded the ram from 4gb to 16gb but it still runs slow when trying to open apps like google. Ram is the only thing i have upgraded and everything else is factory default.
not even joking, this took my pc from running at 100% disc to 2-3%. thank you so much man. i did however when trying to "find updates for windows" it gives me an error and cant find any. and it says im missing some. also my amd stopped being able to update maybe 4-6 months ago. wonder if the issue is linked. thank you so much for the help though
hello i have an ssd and hdd and only my ssd is at 100% which slows my whole pc down. I can’t play games or even simple tasks anymore. Should i buy a new ssd or something?
@@michaelclarkjosephestares2999 i just ordered and installed a new ssd and swapped it out with the old one. I didn’t transfer any data because all i’m guessing is that some virus was installed. Every thing works perfect now
hello can you please help me my prblm is like my disk usage in normal case start from 5% to 10 % but when i open any app like opera or anything it goes to 100 %
So I tried all these things and they definitely sped up my laptop, however Im still getting 100% on my disk usage. When I go to windows updates, I dont have the option to click download now, it just says downloading 0% and just refuses to download any of them?
malware bytes will run a full scan and check for updates [and update] everytime you turn your PC on.. this will bring your PC usage up until it finishes.
After restarting for like the 5th time and doing everything I could from watching multiple videos nothing has changed. Avast software analyzer in the task manager is currently causing my disk to be 100%. I have not changed anything to cause this , everything was fine a few days ago. If I open anything , I mean anything it sky rockets . I think it's malware at this point but I'm just using free versions of malwarebytes and avast. I've done scans but there's 0 detections.
@@GenXTech tbh I barely know anything about computers because I'm using my dad's old PC , so , in task manager , it says capacity is 932gb , and the formatted is 931 , does it mean anything or is it normal?.
Ok not gonna lie and its kinda sad but as soon as i turned off sysmain my disk went to 100% to 0 i made this comment as soon as i just did that thank you so much
Windows Search was using 100% disk on the wife's computer so had to disable that as well, seriously contemplating going to Linux and never messing with this dumpsterfire OS ever again
i have tried all of these solutions and i even reset my bios to default and finally reinstalling new windows completely wiping out all of my saved data and still nothing. so is it safe to assume that it is my HDD is the problem? I'm fine with replacing the hardware but i want to make sure that it is the exact problem because I don't want to end up buying an upgrade and still having the same problem.
Good video but how tf can I actually open any of these when my pc is running on 100 percent disk and will barely give me the chance to open my windows bar :/
turn on your pc and let it sit there for a good 30 minutes before doing anything.. let all the background updates do there thing and then go in and shut em all off
my friends pc has i5 pc with 4gb ram ....he is using hdd but his pc is laggier than my intel celeron 4gb ram laptop.....i have no idea why...his pc boot like 4-5 times longer than my laptop which is like more or less 40 sec
I tried this many times and even more but my brand new laptop still read 100% its i7 10th and 1t ssd and its slow even while using browser can you help????
Did not fix the issue for me and tried all the suggestions made. Anything else you would recommend here? 100% disk usage only seems to be happening when initially loading apps or constantly when downloading from Steam (for example). Feel like I have tried everything at this point, thinking it is an issue with my SATA port. I even bought a new SSD to check it was not hardware and the issue persists.
if you reinstalled windows after formatting your hard drive and still have 100% disk usage you have a hardware problem somewhere. Either the hard drive itself or a memory stick.

Question does when your done with does it make it lose all the stuff on the computer or no
This video does NOT instruct you to delete any programs or personal data, like music movies and pictures.
How does this have anything to do with fixing 100% disk utilization? Especially if it's on another drive other than the operating system.

Thanks broo
youre welcome :)
Not sure if your going to reply back but i can't find the connected user thingy, what else can I do?
Is this a fix for when you duplicate programs running in the task manager?
So only my d drive is at 100usage so its saying 50 percent total. Yet its causing issues still..
Every video I watch it fixes it then 1 min later back to 100
That my friend, unfortunately is a sure sign of malware infection.
So I tried all these things and they definitely sped up my laptop, however Im still getting 100% on my disk usage. When I go to windows updates, I dont have the option to click download now, it just says downloading 0% and just refuses to download any of them?
let that run for a couple hours afk it will download eventually
i have two hard drives, this worked amazing for hard drive (C:) but my second hard drive (D:) is still at 100%. What can i do?
Went from 100% usage to 2% it works 👍
