Windows 10: How to get rid of Stop Script messages in Windows 10

I am using Windows 10 on PC, browser is Waterfox/Firefox. I keep getting the Stop Script message every few seconds and it freezes up my computer. I click shut off/stop, etc., it goes away slowly, then comes back in a few seconds. How can I get rid of it for good? Please use easy to understand instructions, as I am Tech Savvy but not "that" Tech Savvy.

How to stop frequently recurring Script Error messages?

My apologies. I did miss that. Have you been back into Advanced Settings to see if the settings stuck? Should have checked two items and unchecked one. as in.....





I'm sure you have, just covering the bases. I've never seen it not work but then Windows 10 is kind of a new animal. If all three items are showing their desired state my only other suggestion would be to hit the lower right "Reset" button and try again. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable than myself will have another suggestion.

 

How to stop frequently recurring Script Error messages?


Hello. Does anyone know how to stop frequently recurring Script Error messages? I have run a few different virus scans and CCleaner. None of them found anything so I don't know if the problem is caused by a virus/malware or if it's a Windows 10 issue.

Background: Upgraded to Win 10 last month. Tried Edge but didn't like it so switched back to Internet Explorer, and that's when the problem started. When online, I get Script Error messages on many sites (but so far not here, whew), and have to click either Yes/No or X several times to get rid of the message.

I have IE (in “Advanced”) set to disable scripts on IE and everywhere else and to not repeat the Script Error message (sample pic attached; the links change each time), but it still happens. TIA

script error message

Hi Sammie,



The script error that you're receiving can be due to a third-party program loading up in the background. We suggest that you perform a clean boot and remove any suspicious third-party software to see if that clears up
the error message. To perform a clean boot, you may check this article.



Note: Please go through the section: How to reset the computer to start as usual after troubleshooting with clean boot of the Kb article to boot the computer in normal startup after fixing the issue.



Once you resolve software conflicts by removing the third-party software that causes the script error, you should stop seeing this pop-up screen when you turn your laptop on.



Let us know if following the recommended steps in the article gets rid of the script error.
