I have no idea why its doing this, And when i look into task manager to see what it could be, nothing seems to be eating more than 20% disk usage. :/

It's installing updates, just leave it alone without turning off.

In case you aren't aware the disk section in the processes tab on task manager combines all connected drives in the computer, so 20% usage on that tab would equate to one drive being nearly maxed out in usage on a three drive system.

 

If the process is either windows module installer, windows module installer worker or one process in the windows processes section of which the name escapes me at the moment then it's windows update, but if it's windows compatibility telemetry then just kill it since that is just the telemetry being collected.
