Answer 2

Hello @Flg.Off Worawut Todtidrungson

The reasons for 100% disk usage may be many. The first approach should be to open Task Manager (press Ctrl+Shift+Esc on the keyboard) and from the Processes tab identify the processes that are consuming more drive usage.

Once the process is identified you can search or post a question on the community about what it does, why is that high or how to troubleshoot it.

Also it would help if you share in your question other details about your computer such as RAM usage and amount, or processor, as well if it is a Windows 11 compatible device.

As a holistic approach I would recommend next steps:

• Perform a clean boot: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows-da2f9573-6eec-00ad-2f8a-a97a1807f3dd
