Memory leak?

I had one on my original windows 10 install.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

No backup the key and do a completely clean install from USB...

 

The upgrade leaves so much trash laying around I could burn it and generate enough electricity for a small to medium sized city for a year

There is no key for windows 10 upgrade. It's based on hardware

There is a generic key but there is a *.vbs floating around to collect the key or you can write your own...

Disable the service called 'SUPERFETCH'

 

It should fix that.

(From what I've read)

 

-Snip-

Superfetch pre-fetches data from "slow" IO and caches it in unused "fast" RAM, to improve startup and application performance. Essentially they try and predict what data you'll need in the future and give it to you before you even request it.

 

Windows 10 does it aggressively.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz
