Hey,I purchased an Asus Laptop a few days, and I'm facing serious and weird issues with the laptop performance from day 1 on both OS Windows 10 & 11.Whenever I open an Internet Browser it freezes after few minutes. Chrome - freezes after 2-5 minutes of usage, Edge - freezes immediately once I open the App, Firefox - freezes after 2-5 minutes of usage, Opera - freezes after 5 minutes.However, all the other applications perform well and don't have such freeze/lag issues.I tried all the troubleshooting, performed a clean installation of both OS Win

Error: "Internet Explorer is not responding" and "Website not responding" while accessing the browser on Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for your response and information.

As Windows 10 as Microsoft Edge in-built browser, I suggest you to try that browser and check if this issue persists.

For the issues with Internet Explorer try the below and check if it helps.

Step 1: I suggest you to run the Internet Explorer Performance troubleshooter.

• Press Windows key, type troubleshooting
  and select it.
• Click on View all in the left pane.
• Click onInternet Explorer Performance and follow the onscreen instructions.

Step 2: I suggest you to turn off and on Internet Explorer and check if it helps.

Follow the below steps:

• Press Windows + R, type Control Panel
  and hit Enter.
• Click on Programs and Features.
• Click on Turn Windows features on or off from the left pane.
• Uncheck Internet Explorer, click on Ok.
• Restart the computer and repeat the same as above to place a check mark on Internet Explorer.

Hope it helps. Kindly update the status of this issue for further assistance.

 

Freezing/losing internet problems

Hi Miranda,

There are several reasons why you are experiencing this issue. It can be a performance issue of the system, an issue with the Internet connection or the application that you're using. Kindly provide us the answers to the following questions for us to further
isolate the issue:

• Is the issue only happening when you are browsing the Internet?
• Have you tried using another browser to check if the same issue will happen?
• Did you receive any error messages when the computer hangs or stop responding?

In the meantime, we suggest using another browser to isolate if it is happening on a specific application. It is also better if you'll try to play a video that is already downloaded or saved on the computer and check if same issue will happen.

If the same issue is still happening using other browsers and videos that are saved on the computer, we suggest running the
DISM tool and System File Checker. This will help fix possible corruption that the computer encountered. Kindly follow the steps on this article to perform it:
Using System File Checker in Windows 10.

You can also run the Network troubleshooter for Windows 10 to identify if the issue is related to the Internet Connection. Kindly follow the steps below:

• Open Cortana, type Troubleshoot and choose it under the
  Best match.
• Under Get up and running, choose Internet Connections.
  
  
• Click the Run the troubleshooter tab and follow the on-screen steps to run it.

We'll wait for your response about this matter.
