why is this at 100% all the time? Is it bad that it is?

just disable it or install Windows 10 LTSB Enterprise N.

>N
You won't be able to play videos in browsers and some games will fail on cutscenes if you tinstall this version. N(ever).
LTSB is botnet trash as well

>>60344291
I'm pretty sure Windows doesn't show all programs that use disk.

does that mean MS is scanning my harddrive at all times? How are they getting away with this?

>>60344348
Afaik Windows cant' know the max speed of a disk, so it assumes the peak of that session to be 100%

>>60344361
Why are you lying? I use Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB N and I can play any games I want like csgo or Resident Evil i've had no issues.

>>60344379
You agreed to it

>>60344385
I've seen browsers failing to play videos on N. N version only lacks IE, WMP and codecs, it makes no sense to install it over the regular one.

>>60344382
This.

OP, you can disable Windows Defender completely through group policy, or at the very least, disable real-time protection (the shit that is causing the disk and cpu usage). Google for it.

>>60344382
>Windows cant run a simple disk benchmark

>>60344382
this isn't true at all

new update from Microsoft today hdd at 100% for like whole 2 hours. Happened on my both desktop and laptop.

> 2017-05 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 for x64-based Systems

>KB4019472

>>60344471
They could implement that, but now it doesn't That reading also woldn't mate too much sense on a system where you have a fast SSD and a HDD. What would you consider 100% disk usage in this case> This is why it just assumes 100% to be the peask per session.

>>60344487
It is how it works.

>The "N" editions of Windows 10 include the same functionality as other editions of Windows 10 except for media-related technologies. The N editions don't include Windows Media Player, Skype, or certain preinstalled media apps (Music, Video, Voice Recorder).

>If you use N editions of Windows 10, you must install other software from Microsoft or other companies to have this communication functionality; to play or create audio CDs, media files, and video DVDs; to stream music; and to take and store pictures.

>New features such as Cortana, Windows Hello, and PDF viewing in the new Edge browser rely on Windows Media files that aren't included in N editions. And some websites and software, such as Windows Store apps or Microsoft Office, use Windows Media-related files that aren't included in N editions.

>Users of N editions can make websites and software work correctly by installing the Media Feature Pack for N editions of Windows 10 (KB3133719).

>>60344592
Yeah, then why download N if you're installing media pack anyway? You're just making WinSxS bigger. Again, it makes no sense. LTSB doesn;t have Skype, video or voice recorder either.

huh?

>>60344592
What is your point. Windows N versions have always been available to europoors because of some bullshit lawsuit regarding "media player monopolies" or some shit. Literally all they are missing is media related stuff, and you can enable all of it by downloading the feature pack, which most users do.

The only reason that it is available is because Europeans hate corporations and love commie bullshit, and whenever they get wind of a single corp including a single media player as the standard in its OS, they get a raging red erection and have to STOMP IT OUT.

tl;dr there is no fucking point in installing N versions. If you don't want the preinstalled programs, you can remove or disable them through other means.

OP here: just wanted to say that my PC installed a new update yesterday, could be the reason

>>60344291
It's not the case

What's the best way to reduce telemetry/tracking in W10? It doesn't seem like SpyBot Anti-Beacon does anything.

GPEdit. Before this thoguh, disable everything in Settings > Privacy
And you should use either LTSB or Server 2016 if you want Winblows 10

>>60344756
I need to build a PS script that makes all my GP changes for my next build.

>>60344804
A buttplug in your ass, don't you want? It takes five to ten minutes to switch those preferences.

>>60344871
Right, but on top of the other shit I like to change around, it adds up. If i can streamline a few parts of my new build process, it would help. Also,

>A buttplug in your ass, don't you want?

I'm not sure I understand the grammar here.

>>60344264
>>60344291
When that happened to me (stuck at 100% disk usage at all times and computer slowed down to an unusable crawl 24/7) it was a sign that my hard drive was dying. I said fuck it and took that as a sign to build a new computer with an SSD.

>>60344905
As in the process is already very simple. What else do you want? In terms of reducing telemetry/tracking is all you can do.

>>60344956
Who doesn't like automation? Not only that, but it is annoying to try to remember all the different policies that need to be changed. If I'm going to start writing them all down, then I might as well just go all the way and write a script to make the changes for me as well.

Is getting a dell xps 13 a bad idea? I don't know what other laptops I could be looking for that are similar. I don't need a gaymin laptop since I have a desktop for that and would only be playing like roguelikes and shit with it.
My laptops internet is fucked, if I move it an inch the internet shuts off and it can't be fixed even by opening it and shit. The battery life is shot, I get 2 hours with internet on and brightness to lowest and the colors are a little messed up.

>>60345003
Save that screenshot, they're there. You do it once, make sure all your settings are in place then image the drive with the clean install.
I don;t think you can automate GPedits unless you use domain joining. It's a five minute job that is done once. You're making it sound like it's the hardest thing in the world to double click on a selection.

Looks possible.

Also, I think writing scripts and trying shit out like that is "fun". So why not?

>>60344725
honest answer: not using it.

adapting to another OS is easier than making win10 (almost) spy-free

if you need to use win10 just accept that they spy on you

What's the cheapest 1080p laptop where the mouse buttons are separate from the track pad(not like, located elsewhere, just that they aren't able to move the mouse if I click them) and it can handle smooth full screen YouTube playback? And it can run Linux.
