Title: Disk 100%
Post by: Matwood on October 22, 2022, 07:24:26 AM
Hi!

My current work laptop is running extremely slowly and is constantly running at at 100% for the disk (even though the apps that are open are not seemingly adding to anywhere near that).

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!!

Hi

If you are allowed on your work laptop to add any programs. Give the IT guys a hand either use the laptops built in diagnostics. HP and Dell have this as a windows tool.
Or install HDsentinel trial and check if the drive is healthy and not having communication errors.
If the above checks ok then perhaps a malware check.
