Hello,

My computer is an HP Envy 15 with Windows 8.1 and I bought it last year. Since I have gotten the laptop, I think I had this issue of disk usage.
Every time I startup my computer and open the task manager, the disk usage will be at 100% and that slows my computer by a lot. Then after 10 minutes or so, it will drop to 0 to 10%.

It only happens when I start my computer and usually do not happen again after. I tried to find solutions on the internet, but none of them have worked.

I tried so far: disabling some startup programs, disabling "windows search" and "super fetch" in services.msc

I really want to solve this problem, any help would be appreciated!

I looked at the resource monitor on my startup

Here are some screenshot that I took:

Those happened in the first 10 mins of the startup.
I noticed that there were some process that takes a lot of disk usage.

And right now when I look at my resource monitor there are only 6 process that is using the disk:
system
svchost
chrome
explorer
audiodg
dwm

Sometimes there are only 3 to 4.

I have ran the ESET scanner, it found 6 threats and deleted them.

I think that the bitdefender was a big issue. After I disabled it, my computer will run smoothly after 5mins instead of 10mins

What is the game scanning service that you are talking about? How do I disable it (If i can) ?

you tell me what it is.. you are the one who downloads and installs all the weirdo stuff that probably gets you viruses and malware! haha

you need to run Eset again and also really throughly clean your system cause you obviously have bad stuff..

also run HItman Pro

HitmanPro 3 - SurfRight

I don't intall weido stuff, I don't have viruses.
I found what the game scanner was, it was my razer synapse.

Anyway, I think my computer is running better now.

Thank you

hey.. you don't want cancer to still be in the system.. or come back..

run hitman pro.. see if it finds anything.

and just so you know, just because you run Eset online 1 time and it finds 6 things and clears them.. doesn't mean you are good to go..

it means you need to run other things like Hitman to get a 2nd opinion

also seriously run this though.. as this is Windows own verification check..

-go down to option 2
