Windows 10: Browsers freeze Win 10

As the title suggests, recently my computer freezes randomly when using browsers, Edge or Chrome. There are 3 patterns: 1. Screen freezes, turns black for seconds; Ctrl+Alt+Delete still works, close the browser in Task Manager and problem is solved for the moment. 2. Screen freezes, then turns black; Ctrl+Alt+Delete not working, have to reboot the computer. 3. Screen freezes and not turning black; Ctrl+Alt+Delete not working, have to reboot the computer. The mentioned problem happens once a day on averege. Edge/Chrome reset and reinstalled, problem persists. SFC, DISM, CHKDSK, WMDWindows Memo

Win 10 CU (not FCU) stutters and freezes a lot with various operations

I get momentary freezes and stuttering with a range of Windows menu operations. *sarc These are the ones that are top of mind but I'm sure there are others. Win 10 Pro 64, up to date on patches.

• Xing out a FireFox tab
• Click on FILE menu (drop down is delayed)
• FILE > Print (printer list or print menu is delayed)
• Selecting a higher level on the file path in the SAVE menu
• Search menu at bottom of Windows
• Typing in many situations.

Any suggestions? Or this this a known problem in Win 10? I've had this problem for some time, but lately it has gotten me really PO'ed.*Confused

 

Chrome keeps freezing on Windows 10

Hi Pat,



There may be a few reasons why your Google Chrome keeps on freezing. One reason is the browser that you're using. For us to further isolate your concern, we need you to answer the following:

• Is this happening on other browsers as well (e.g. Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox)?
• Does the issue persist only on a specific website or it occurs on all websites?

Let us know if you're still getting the same error after performing our suggested troubleshooting step so we can assist further.
