    Not Responding


    I seem to be getting the Not Responding state more frequently, with the activity circle spinning endlessly and the open app freezing. Sometimes I get it going by cleaning out some RAM, using F4, Super F4 and Kill IT All (If I can access it) ---- also stopping hungry Processes / apps in Task Manager, especially Malwarebytes. If I can, restarting Explorer sometimes works. But often the only thing left is the power off button. Are there other things I can try?

    :)

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Not Responding :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
