Hello, since I put my computer to sleep an hour ago, it is very, very slow (the mouse is struggling) I went to the task manager and there is 100% disk usage, I looked at what is using it, the application "System" is using about 50MB/s (98%) but when I launch Google Chrome (and stay on it) system drops to 0.1MB/s and 0% usage.

Have you ever had this issue? What do you recommend?

P.S. I'm using Windows 8.1 64-bit and I haven't had any problems until now.

Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this.

    Hi

    Virus... So scan with adwcleaner, malwarebytes and clean with ccleaner...

    What antivirus do you have?
