    TO resolve this problem i would suggest you to go to the control panel for disabling the feature of indexing services which was present in the previous operating system of windows. You need to open the control panel and then programs and features and finally disable indexing service that was available in earlier windows.

    I think that the indexing service is equally important since the indexing will help you in improving your system performance. This process gets triggered whenever the system becomes idle and hence i will not recommend you not to disable this service since disabling this service will definitely improve your systems performance.
