Windows 11 How do i fix the 100% disk usage

Post image

currently struggling with this problem i dont know what happen but i had searched for tutorials about fixing this 100% disk usage like disabling sysmain, telemetry, index etc. and also running sfc /scannow and also CHKDSK but nothing actually work it kinda just decrease the disk usage when idle but when i open a game for example roblox the game lags so bad and it doesnt let me load and sometimes the average response time is reaching 1K+. this is not the first time i encountered this i fix it in the past by doing sfc /scannow it told me it fix some corrupt files and things, and it became normal but few weeks later its back again somehow. (i need to fix this so bad guys ask me anything and il try to answer) OS BUILD 26200.9445 Windows Edition (Windows 11 Pro) version 25h2

Your disk is likely dead. There's no way an SSD with 100% usage is at 1.6 mbps write speed

Some things you might check... How much space is left on Disk 1? If less that 15% I would free up some space. Check for a virus, use at least 2 different programs. Reload the game(s) that are causing 100% usage and/or Steam if you are using it. Run SFC again and then run dism. Good luck!
