This is a bit worrying.


The thing about these toys is that one finds out things that are perhaps best not known. As I gave my PC one of its full starts this morning, the little 'LEDs' of course showed frenetic activity on the C drive. However, E started to be read, and more worryingly, showed a proportion of writes. 780 reads versus 93 writes

D - the drive for programs - showed nothing.

My novel is in E, but that only accounts for a meager 80 files totaling less than 3 Mb Photos are the largest single 'type' of file. Well before it had finished buzzing away, I'd turned off every facet of Avast! That made no difference at all.

Procexp. Showed mostly MS activity, but some transitory things were too quick to catch.

Does the team think that this is normal?
