Windows 10 disk usage 100% and lagging too much but Ubuntu works smoothely

0

I am having two operating systems in my laptop, Ubuntu and Windows 10 (Recently Installed Latest Version).

Ubuntu works best in performance and performs heavy functions lag-lessly.

Windows 10 worked smoothely around 10 minutes after installing and suddenly started lagging very much. On clicking start menu, it pops up after 2-5 Minutes.

On task manager , the ram usage was 10-20% only but disk usage was uniformely 100% with no programs that were using disk.

I tried many solutions available on net like : disabling superfetch and Windows Search, but none worked for me :(

Facts:

Ram : 2GB

I installed only Chrome Browser after installing Windows 10

EDIT : Uninstalled Chrome, still same

Please help me.

1How full is the partition that Windows 10 is on? If it's more than 90% full, you're going to have virtual memory issues. Also, 2 GB or RAM is really on the low end for Windows 10. – Charles Burge – 2017-03-09T07:30:54.547

Partition of Windows 10 is empty and of size about 200GB – Ahmad Taha – 2017-03-09T07:39:26.750

Have you scanned for viruses? – vembutech – 2017-03-09T07:47:28.107

Yes, even did full PC scan with Advanced SystemCare that includes : Disk Optimization, Disk Check, System Check, and many more. No errors were found. – Ahmad Taha – 2017-03-09T07:58:14.763

2GB for using Chrome under Win10 is not enough. no wonder that windows is slow, it must page out data to pagefile – magicandre1981 – 2017-03-09T16:39:15.110

@magicandre1981 I have already uninstalled chrome. :( then also the problem persists – Ahmad Taha – 2017-03-10T09:21:41.553

Please provide the exact make and model of your CPU and motherboard. – Daniel B – 2017-03-10T09:26:43.990

2GB is still not enough. Windows still pages data to pagefile. use ubuntu most time – magicandre1981 – 2017-03-10T17:27:48.937

Run Resource and Performance Monitor (perfmon.exe) and see what programs and services are using the disk. – Ben Voigt – 2017-03-11T21:07:57.897
