    Computer completely freezing


    My computer has started to freeze randomly whenever I am doing something such as playing a game or browsing the Web. This issue has only been happening for a few days. I did have new internet installed a week ago but I can't see how that will cause my PC to freeze. Does anyone know how to stop this from happening?

    :)

    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 Computer completely freezing :) Best regards.


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

    Hi Marina,

    What is the error that you see on Startup? Provide complete and exact error code or message.

    I suggest that you run the SFC scan and check if it helps to improve the Computer performance. Follow the steps :

    • Press Windows + X
    • Click Command prompt (Admin)
    • Type sfc /scannow
    • Press Enter
