    Using Google Chrome makes my disk go up to 50% usage.


    This is annoying because it makes surfing and watching youtube completely impossible. It freezes my whole computer. And i have an awful feeling win 10 is doing something.
    Cause when i look into performance monitor the first 2 things that are using the most of my disk are both system.

    Currently im using brave and nothing like that is happening. Now, id like to know what this is cause its very weird. I dont have this problem in any other application except chrome.
    Also windows was checking for updates like 10 minutes before it started freezing. I also disabled all extentions and tried things like adding --no-sandbox in the shortcut but nothing fixed it. It also never goes beyond 50% but it freezes the heck out of my pc.

    Is it potentially this portion of Chrome?

    Expand the Chrome entry in task manager.

    Maybe it's a chrome's extension that causes the issue! Try disabling the latest extensions you've added.
