This post is in response to your windows performance article, i have a problem where my disk is constantly shooting up to 100% from as soon as i boot my laptop up and sometimes the boot up time takes forever, laptop is a MSI GE602pe, i've disabled background transfer, superfetch and windows search but nothing seems to be helping so i did exactly what your article said and uploaded the file to my onedrive. I'm not sure if i posted this in the correct place as its my first time on here but if you could help me fix this problem it'd be amazing. Below is the link to the file from recording the performance with the toolkit, thanks hopefully speak soon.

Tiworker relaunches itself as needed. Check to see if it is running.
As you can see from the snip, when you ran the trace your disk was not even close to being 100%. If you are still experiencing the problem and you are sure TiWorker is off (and stays off) re-run the trace and upload it
Did you run DISM to fix the problems that SFC found?
I/O error may be the cause of everything. Please run these two tests
To test a suspect HD You should do 2 things as described in this wiki
In this trace the CPU was almost inactive but the HD was thrashing. The I/O error is probably the cause
as i said before, i tried sfc/ verifyonly and after reaching to 100% i got the response "windows resource protection has found integrity violations" i then tried sfc/ scannow and got the response "windows resource protection could not perform the requested operation" i then tried Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth and got the response "the request could not be performed because of an i/o device error" and i got the same response when trying DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth - here is a scan after tiworker is off - https://1drv.ms/u/s!AteVz9eopyfZf6jERhIhxjq42Ms
i turned off Tiworker but it still seems to be happening, on task manager it keeps saying disk 100% i tried sfc/ verifyonly and after getting to 100% i got the response "windows resource protection has found integrity violations" i then tried sfc/ scannow and got the response "windows resource protection could not perform the requested operation"
Does not appear to be a disk problem. It does appear that Tiworker.exe is causing some severe CPU issues. Tiworker is related to windows update. If you kill Tiworker in task manager does the CPU use (and HD use) get better?
Were you experiencing the high HD activity when the trace was run?
I would also run a system file check to find the state of the OS
Please run a system file check (SFC) & DISM if you are on win 8 or higher
All instructions are in our Wiki article below...Should you have any questions please ask us.
