Windows 10: My computer keeps freezing when on Task View

Every time my computer keeps on freezing when I go to Task View and move a window to another desktop. The only way to stop it from freezing is when I click on the start button on my keyboard. Is there a way to stop that?

Computer keeps freezing

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down to the issue.

• 
  What is the make and model of the computer?
  
• 
  Did you receive any error message?
  
• 
  Did you see any suspicious programs running on the Task bar?
  
• 
  Did you install any third party security application?
  
• 
  What is the size of the recovery partition?
  
• 
  What exactly happens when you try to close the applications from Task manager?
  

This might not be because of the Recovery drive, this issue may arise due to various factors such as faulty drivers, malware attacks, corruptions in Windows components or due to third party application conflicts.

As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to run
System Maintenance troubleshooter finds and clean up unused files and shortcuts and performs maintenance tasks.

• • Press Windows key and type Troubleshooting.
  • Select Troubleshooting and hit Enter.
  • Click on View all in the left pane of the window.
  • Select System Maintenance.

Click Next and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the troubleshooting process.

If the issue persists, I suggest you to place the computer in a clean boot state and check if the issue persists.

A clean boot is performed to start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This helps eliminate software conflicts that occur when you install a program or an update or when you run a program in Windows 8.1, Windows 8,
Windows 7, or Windows Vista. You may also troubleshoot or determine what conflict is causing the problem by performing a clean boot.

Applies to Windows 10

Disclaimer: After you have finished troubleshooting, follow these steps from section “How to reset the computer to start as usual after clean boot troubleshooting” to reset the computer to start as usual.

I would also suggest you to check if any suspicious programs are installed on the computer without your knowledge.

Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

Thank you.

 

Computer Keeps Freezing

It froze again, and the common problem I see throughout most of the freezes is a driver atksgt.sys being blocked from loading. It is related to Tages Protection from Tages SA and it says it has a driver that is installed that causes stability problems with my system. It says it will be disabled but I think this is why my pc keeps freezing. Any suggestions as to what it may be for and/or if I can get rid of it and how?

I never downloaded a program from Tages SA so I am not sure what it could be from.
