Windows 10: Gamebar_widget.exe has been crashing around 1000 times per week for the last month.

Over the past month, reliability monitor has been showing Gamebar_widget crashing tens of times per day, sometimes over a thousand times per week. I'm not certain what impact its having on my computer as I rarely use it, but I would really like to fix it. I've already tried verifying my system files, restoring gamebar and repairing gamebar in settings. I have also tried updating windows and my graphics drivers. Here is the info from reliability monitor from the most recent crash today:SourceGamebar_WidgetSummaryStopped workingDate‎2/‎12/‎2024 1:32 PMStatusReport sentDescrip

all games crash!

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

 

Explorer.exe Crashing (EventID 1000, Several Faulting Modules)

After several months of searching for solutions, I finally found something that can mediate the problem. I searched specifically for the faulting modules and the function listed in the Crash Dump info and ended up at this link which suggested a fix at the bottom. Here's the fix:

• Navigate to Windows 10 Settings -> Personalization -> Start
  
• Disable "Show recently opened items in Jump Lists on Start or the Taskbar"
  

It seems the issue resulted from some sort of error in adding an item to this recent list; hence why the crash occurs when creating a new folder or opening an item. One thing that hasn't been fixed is the "new window" part of the problem, but that's more of an inconvenience and I can work around that. At the very least, this seems to stop explorer from crashing... though I'm sure whatever the problem is it's still there, just mitigated by this setting. But that's good enough for me.

ive watch my temps and both the cpu and gpu are within normal ranges. when it freezes it simply freezes the image and stops the sound. i must reboot to get back to windows.
