Application experience inventory component blows chunks (Disk usage @ 100%).

This is so annoying, it isn't funny.
The Application experience inventory component scans *all* your data storage devices looking for programs, and pegs the disk storage utilization at 100% while it churns away.
Since it is run using rundll, it don't show up in taskmanager.
After it finds all the programs, it then sends all those programs back to MS's servers.

With group policy editor, you open up Windows Components\Application Compatibility and then set it to "enable" to turn this turd off.
This is enabled by default on win 7 & 8 & 10 now.

Thanks for the tip. I have noticed this on a few Windows 10 installs - disk usage peaks for about a minute for seemingly no particular reason. I figured it was just the host and the VM hitting their page files at the same time. I have enabled these at the desktop and look forward to seeing what happens.
