if the drive does not exist
I did not have a disk X, it did not exist.
This causes the PC to stutter.
To see which disks have which ID, right click This PC -> manage (or start computer management) -> Disk Management
Go to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\disk\Enum to see which devices there are
or in command prompt type
Get-PhysicalDisk | Select -Prop DeviceId,FriendlyName,SerialNumber
or
list disk
NB with
list volume you get the health of the partitions
Check Device manager -> Disk Drives. Also view -> hidden devices. Delete the hidden devices.
I found a lot of Xvd devices. These are temporary hard disks added by GamePass for updating and playing games. You can safely get rid of them. Not so much the gaming services.
To get rid of it permanently you have to get uninstall the xbox app, xbox games and game pass.
