Windows 10: Computer freezing and rebooting while using Twitter

Whenever I use Twitter for some reason my computer randomly freezes then reboots itself after using its video playback feature. Anyone else have this issue?

:)

 

reboot/freeze problem

my computer runs fine for about 20-30 minutes and then reboots/freezes(sometime it reboots, sometimes it freezes)
i have an evga 680i A1 board, 4x1gig xms2 dhx, q6600, 2x8800ultra's, 2x150gb raptors, pci-e wireless n card.

i have tried running the computer at stock speeds and voltages and have the same problem, so it's not an overclock issue.

it seems to be a software problem. but where do i start? the computer run @3.6ghz can run all night(9hours) orthos stable, but when im using it, it locks up every 20-30 minutes.

any suggestions?

 

Twitter Notifications

No worries, Russ. To get Twitter notifications on your device, we recommend that you follow these steps:

• Uninstall your Twitter application.
• Open your Twitter from a computer and go to your settings.
• Choose apps and remove access from Twitter for your Windows Phone.
• Reinstall Twitter on your phone and grant it permission to connect to your account.

You should receive Twitter notifications after a day or two.

Keep us posted.

 

Twitter App

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



May I know, if you are facing this issue with only Twitter app or other apps as well?



We will have to try few troubleshooting steps to further eliminate the root cause of the issue and check.



Method 1:

1. Try resetting store app,
   Press Windows + R key on your keyboard and type wsreset on the run window and hit enter.
   
2. If you have not rebooted your computer after Windows update, reboot the computer once and check.
   

Method 1:

1. Right click on the start menu and click on
   Windows PowerShell (Admin) that will run PowerShell in admin mode.
   
2. Disable any antivirus program, if you have any.
   
3. Type Get-AppxPackage –AllUsers –Name *twitter* it will give you the information of the twitter app.
   
4. Copy the PackageFullName
   e.g. (Microsoft.WindowsStore_11807.1001.13.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe) and save it on a notepad, the example on the bracket is for store app, you will have to copy for twitter app.
   
5. Type Get-AppxPackage *twitter* | Remove-AppxPackage this will uninstall twitter app from the system.
   
6. Reboot the system once.
   
7. Open PowerShell again with step 1.
   
8. Type in Add-AppxPackage -register "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\< PackageFullName>\AppxManifest.xml" –DisableDevelopmentMode
   
9. Replace <PackageFullName> with the name you have saved on step 4.
   
10. Hit enter and let the installation complete.
    
11. You can also install the app from Windows Store.
    

After the command is completed, you should be able to search for twitter app and use it from start menu.

Method 2:

1. You can also try to
   create a new user account and check if it works on the new user account.

If you still face the issue, reply to this post with more information.



Hope it helps.
