that is startup, immediately launching horizon 4 and while it's loading in that order.
In those initial 1+3 screenshots, practically nothing is occurring. Disk usage remains only 1%-2%.
I can observe the game starting and Windows Defender updating its definitions.
The last screenshot shows SDXhelper.exe handling MS Office updates, with disk usage at 74%.
Wait until the MS Office updates are complete.
This was just a short time ago. I turned off Windows Defender and am using the basic protection settings, with all other options disabled as much as possible.
It appears that everything is working well so far. The performance remains smooth with no problems. However, when streaming, my CPU and disk usage spike to 100%. My streaming software is consuming about 40% of the CPU. I’m puzzled as this hasn’t happened before. Could something new be running that I’m not seeing?
I’m considering getting another SSD to store the games, but a CPU upgrade isn’t an option—it would require replacing everything. Honestly, I’m unsure what to do next.
Also keep in mind Process Explorer (Microsoft, free). It's another tool to monitor system activities. Use the sorting feature to highlight the most resource-intensive processes first.
Does this resemble a 128GB drive formatted as 1TB? Could be possible? Or are you merely observing standard details without actual storage capacity? The model identifier MZ7TY128HDHP-000L1 is noted.
It's true, the situation feels quite intense. The only thing I can sort right now is alphabetically.
