Question 100% disk usage

[raavr]

Hello everyone, I am new to the forum. So excuse me if this post is not in the right topic.

My computer has been acting up recently, everything is slow all the time. Task manager is showing a constant 100% disk usage and 98/99% memory used.

It is a relatively new computer that I got from my work to keep. I have not done anything weird on it as far as I can remember. Recently installed windows 11.

Did a scan with Mawarebytes and also a Chkdsk on the hdd, which came out clean.

Included a screenshot with the task manager.

Any help would be appreciated.

It looks like Antimalware is doing some scan currently.

Show screenshot from Resource Monitor - Disk tab, Disk Activity section (ordered by column Total).

List full specs of your system.
What model HDD/SSD are you using?
How much physical ram in the system?

Your system is low on ram. Current workload requires more physical ram.

There's extensive reading/writing to pagefile.
Currently you're experiencing something called virtual memory "trashing".

You have to either install more physical ram or
close open programs/close browser tabs and have open only necessary ones.

You can check Task Manager/Performance/Memory section.
See Committed memory value. That is amount of ram, your workload requires.
For optimal performance committed memory should fit all in physical ram.

But this issue started to appear a couple of days ago.
Everything was working fine with even more tabs open at that time.

Did you install anything new in past couple of days?

Was this an upgrade to win 11 or a fresh format/install?

Just the windows 11 update

It was an upgrade to win 11.

I will try to do a clean install this weekend.
