The System process can be viewed as a special kind of process that hosts threads that only run in kernel mode. Its related file name is ntoskrnl.exe and it is located in C:\Windows\System32\ folder. It is responsible for various system services such as hardware abstraction, process and memory management, etc.
At times, the System process may display a high disk or CPU usage for a few minutes. This is temporary and should not worry you. But if the same continues to persist frequently, you may need to take a look at a few things.

2] Clear the Page file at shutdown
3] Don’t use a Power saver plan
4] Use SysInternals Process Explorer
5] Disable Idle task
6] Use Event Tracing for Windows to capture CPU sampling data
