avast’s constant use of disks is a problem that could negatively affect your PC performance. If not fixed it could cause your software to slow down, or even fail to function. There are a variety of ways to address this issue, including virus scanning as well as setting your virtual memory back to its initial state and running a fresh reboot. Additionally you can uninstall programs you do not require and delete temporary files that are taking up CPU and RAM. You can either perform this manually or use a program such as AVG TuneUp to do it for you.
The change in the scan frequency could decrease the amount of disk space used by avast. This will stop background checking and monitoring but it will reduce avast’s high CPU usage.
If you are still experiencing high disk and CPU usage, you can update the antivirus software. You can open the Avast interface by clicking on the icon in your system tray or locate it under the Start menu entry. Then, click Menu and choose Settings from the drop-down list.
You can see the current scans running on your computer by selecting Scan with Avast from the context menu when you right-click a file on the drive. The Stop button allows you to disable a scan if it is using excessive memory. After that, you can test to verify if your CPU and utilization of the disk has returned to normal.
