    why is win 10 spiking my disc usage to 100%

    I am having the same issue. My hard drive goes to 100% and completely freezes the computer. I tried the steps above and they did not fix the problem. I notice that the disc usage spikes to 100% whenever I open File Explorer. What can I do to fix this
    problem?

    SysMain CPU usage keeps randomly spiking

    SysMain keeps randomly spiking CPU usage from 0% to around 11%. It’s happening every few minutes and it’s getting irritating. There aren’t any viruses or any other malicious software. Whats going on?? Is it normal??

    100% Disc Usage (Spikes) Not always at 100%

    Yeah i understand that downloading causes it to spike... The only problem with that is even after it cont to idle high... or when playing a game or something it will randomly spike to 100% then drop back down fast then spike again cause random hiccups int he game i will get a screenshot but i gotta download a game first i completely reinstalled windows 10. Its currently low disc usuage atm cause im not doing anything as soon as i start playing something its going to keep spiking
