    Hey.

    Look into updating your chipset drivers to latest possible.

    Open an elevated command prompt and copy/paste this, hit enter:

    chkdsk /r C:

    Run that for each partition on the system, changing C to match the letter.

    You could try to install TeraCopy. It may do something better for you.

    If you have AVG uninstall that from the system and do not just disable. Uninstall any other antivirus you may have, as a test if needed.

    Then yes, it is AVG causing it. AVG is terrible and this is what happens with it, amongst many other things.

    No recommendations. I'm sure others will have them.

    Run the installer. No need for anything special.
