I have removed AVG, not a huge difference though. It is slightly quicker from cold boot, but still unsatisfactory.

Have you tried the tweaks from my tutorial or run my program to see any changes will happen. Also have you ask for malware infection checkup?

Use the built-in Windows Defender and Windows Firewall. Just make sure they are enabled (look at Control Panel).

 

That's what I use along with Malwarebytes anti-malware (I have Pro) and anti-exploit.

One of your installed program must be causing the issue keep an eye on Task Manager to see which process causing the high HDD utilization.
