WEI error : Can't

[Elbow]

Hi,

I just recently did a fresh install of my OS and wanted to check my WEI score but I get this error when attempting it.

Could not measure storage performance.
Error: Failed to properly assess the disk. The parameter
is incorrect.

hope you can help


cheers

From what I see in a Google search it may be a bad hard drive or your anti-virus is the culprit. Especially AVG or Avast. And if a program like AVG or Avast can do it, then it's certainly possible some other program could interfere.

The hard drive is pretty new, I did disable the firewall and anti virus soft.

I wonder what's a happenin' ?

Hi

just dissabling the AV is not enough it has to be uninstalled
note a lot of security folks are talking about ditching it

Ditching an AV or specifically AVAST?

Hi

Ditching Avast, (& AVG same company)

lightest and very user friendly minimal setup options - Bitdefender free
if you want a more user controlled option try Kaspersky, includes a vpn still free
