Looks to be Windows Update taking up all the disk usage for some reason.

But if your disk usage spike to 99% just for 10MB/s, there's something wrong with your disk... Or there's something we don't see here, go in the User Tab (gebruikers?) and check the disk usage in there as well.

 

You can try this, which I found elsewhere

 

TiWorker.exe is Windows Modules Installer Worker. It is related to Windows Updates.

Method 1: I would suggest you to run system and maintenance troubleshooter and see if that helps.

a - Open the start Menu.

b - Write Troubleshooting in the search box (just start writing as soon as the menu is open)

c - Select the Troubleshooting option obtained after the search.

d - Click on View All option present on the top left corner.

e - Select the System Maintenance.

f - Click on Next to perform the System Maintenance troubleshooter and follow the steps.

 

Method 2: To resolve the issue with TiWorker.exe, check for updates in Windows Updates and install them.

a.     Click on the Windows + X keys and select Control Panel.

b.     Click on Windows Updates, in Large Icons View.

c.      In the left panel, click on Check for updates.

 

Method 3: Perform a Clean Boot to see if there is any software conflict as clean boot helps to eliminate software conflicts.

Note: Follow How to reset the computer to start as usual after troubleshooting with clean boot from article KB929135 to reset the computer to normal mode.

So the disk usage is at 100% no matter what? Even on a fresh boot?

Which laptop model is this exactly?

Is this a new thing or was it happening before?

Does it return to normal after a while?

What does your Start-Up tab look like? (Opstarten)

Which services are "running" and do you see anything that strike you as unusual in the services tab?

Have you done an anti virus scan (with avast) and a malware scan (with malwarebytes) ?

Is a defragmentation or virus scan being run in the background?

So it goes back to normal after 5 to 10 minutes? Could just be windows loading up everything on boot or from hibernation.

You could try disabling Hybrid Sleep and hibernation, and just use "sleep", as that's storing everything in the RAM and not the HDD, which is ok for a laptop since you have a battery backup on it, unlike a desktop.

It's Windows. I run into this problem all the time even on Windows 8. For me rather than Windows Update, it's System that's taking up the entire disk after booting up from hibernation or from a cold stand still.

I had this issue. Every so often, the disk usage would randomly out of nowhere spike to 100% for 5-10 minutes. I ended up swapping out the HDD for an SDD - with an SDD the spikes only reached about 40%.
