I just updated my laptop and I have been experiencing major disk errors after the update. File explorer stops responding while trying to launch an app from there. Search index also gets turned off and 1GB of storage was removed from my SSD drive. I tried restarting once, and it removed some more disk space after the automatic fix.
P.S. The only reason I chose Microsoft Edge in the category is because I could not find Windows 10 there.

chkdsk c: /scan
command and show the result.
What exactly update did you do?

Please check drive's health with third-party CrystalDiskInfo tool and SSD manufacturer's tool and show the screenshots.
