Of the four Windows 10 machines that I'm responsible two of them have that "100% disc usage excessively.
On the one at work I think I have got a handle on it and will do the same thing to the one at home when I get there.
What I did was go into Services and disable Windows Search, Search will still work but will take a little longer.
Edit:
I forgot to mention that the two problem machines have non-SSD hard drives.

According to my wife all of her coworkers got their Stimulus payment. I didn't get ours so I checked with the web site that the IRS set up and it said that we were eligible but they didn't have my banking info. For at least the last 15 years I used the same bank and account. Anyway I gave them the info after I verified that it was really a US IRS site.

Tibs, did you follow the link that explains that message? You may find an answer there.
i did yesterday but then found an article on cnbc where an irs spokesman said that this message is the default with system overload and to rest assured the irs has your info if you've filed a return.

Which deoxit products are the best for regular mod contact maintenance? I'm going to get D100L, and G100L, what I'm interested in is if the brush applicator bottles are worth the increased price compared to the tubes?

I got this, the pen is very easy to control the flow and you don't waste any. When you see the price you'll see why they named it "Gold". For a cleaner, I used Q-tips and alcohol.

Yeah, the price is crazy. Almost $17 for the deoxit gold pen, on ebay I can get two 2mL tubes, one Deoxit , one Deoxit gold, for $12.99. That would cover corroded contacts and regular maintenance . Think that's the direction I'm going to take. Thank you for the recommendation on the pen and Q-tips+alchohol.

Sitting down, facing forward.
Every time I fill a tank I clean the 510, heck I wipe the whole mod down, with IPA on a paper towel. Takes a minute and keeps the fingerprints down. The same to the tank I filled. Never have contact problems that way.

btw been trying since yesterday. good to know that somebody managed to get through ;)

Oh-oh Tibs! I just heard all of the money they had reserved for this is now gone. Hopefully you managed to get in. :)

If not, they didn't know whether they will approve of more or not.

UPDATE: Oh I think that was the money set aside for small businesses. They are talking about 47,000 stores are going to close due to the lockdown.
