Mystery file being written at almost 6MB/sec
Image "System", PID 4, is writing to file
"C:\System Volume Information\{7920ac3e-6af2-...}{3808876b-c176...}" (ellipses because the actual file name is way too long to bother manually transcribing here, and Windows is too lame to let me actually copy and paste the filename from Reliability and Performance Monitor) at 350MB/min, and thereby saturating the disk with I/O so that anything else I try to do on the system is dreadfully slow. I see no indication of what might be causing this. How can I find out, or does anybody know offhand what this probably is?
