You could start by posting a picture of your task manager and a little more detail on what's being run on your computer.

I had that problem before on Windows 10. I'm not sure which one fixed it but the things I tried are:

 

Run > services.msc

1. Disable BITS (Background Intelligent Transfer Service)

2. Disable WSearch (Windows Search)

3. Disable Superfetch

 

4. Manually set your Page File to 1024 x (your RAM in GB)

 

These were all suggested fixes I found on Google.

After letting the PC sit idle for a while it calmed down.

 

Edit P.S.

I had that problem on a Windows 10 PC with an HDD but not on my other PC with an SSD.

If you are using an HDD you could be bottlenecking it if there is increased IO. However that is not a forgone conclusion.  You should use Process Monitor and Process Explorer to determine the offender.  Simple task manager or resource monitor won't give a good representation since you need to walk the process tree to understand what's spawning that activity.  Procmon and Process Explorer will help with that.
