Hi everyone,I'm experiencing a problem with my Windows 10 system after the latest update. My computer keeps freezing randomly, and I have to restart it to get it working again. I've tried basic troubleshooting steps like updating drivers and running system scans, but the issue persists. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

System freeze and other perfromance issue on Windows 10.

Hello Rand,

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We regret the inconvenience caused and will assist you in resolving the issue.

Before assisting further, I would like to ask you few questions:

• 
  Did you update the graphics card after upgrading to Windows 10?
  
• 
  Does the screen freeze up when performing a particular task or at random?
  

You might be facing this issue due to the non-updated or incompatible graphics card drivers. Non-updated or incompatible device drivers may cause system performance issue in the operating system. Updating the device drivers, compatible with the operating
system will help in resolving certain device driver issue.

Method 1: I suggest you to update the graphics card driver from
Device manager manually by following the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.

• 
  Press Windows key + X and click on
  Device Manager.
  
• 
  Expand Display adapter option from the window.
  
• 
  Right click on the graphics display driver and select
  Update option from the context menu.
  
• 
  Follow the on-screen instructions and wait for the update to complete.
  
• 
  Close the window and check if the changes are effective.
  

Method 2: If the issue persists, I suggest you to install the graphic card drivers in compatibility mode by following the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.

Step 1: Compatibility mode runs the program in the current version of Windows using the settings from previous version of Windows.

• 
  Download the latest driver setup file from the manufacturer’s website or locate the downloaded driver setup file of the previous operating system in your PC.
  
• 
  Right-click on the driver setup file and click on
  properties.
  
• 
  Click on the compatibility tab, check the box
  Run this program in compatibility mode for, select
  Windows 10 operating system from the drop down menu and proceed with the installation.
  
• 
  Once the driver is installed in compatibility mode,
  restart the PC for the effective changes to take place.
  

Step 2: You can also follow the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.

• 
  Press Windows logo key on the keyboard and type
  Run programs made for previous versions of Windows.
  
• 
  Select the top most search result and follow from
  step 2 from the article Make older programs compatible with this version
  of Windows (Also applies to Windows 10).

I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
