You could try (experiment) turning on/off file history by following instructions below:

To turn on File History:

Open File History by swiping in from the right edge of the screen, tapping Search (or if you're using a mouse, pointing to the upper-right corner of the screen, moving the mouse pointer down, and then clicking Search), entering File History in the search box, tapping or clicking Settings, and then tapping or clicking File History.

 Tap or click Turn on/off.

I tried. Nothing works. Even tried to reconnect another drive (external). See the print screen

Okay, has the problem occurred recently? or is it an old problem?

If recently, you could try a system restore to an earlier point in time.
its old, like 2-3 months. its getting annoying
Does the same thing happen in safe mode?

Do you see any startup programs (using msconfig or ccleaner) that may be causing this?

Are there any related events you could see in the Event Manager?
1. Yes, it happen
2. No programs in startup that may cause the problem
3. only 3 critical events (when i force shutting down from the button).
