Windows 10: My PC Freezes After Closing and then Reopening a Game or Program

Basically what the title says, I will be playing any sort of game ie Overwatch 2, Apex Legends, Rocket League, even Old School RuneScape and I will then close that game of my own volition and choice. If i decide to reopen that game or a different one, shortly after doing so my entire system will freeze, leaving me with no other choice but to hold down on the power button on my case to restart my system. It might be worth noting that I still have audio from say a discord call that i would be in at the time of the crash. This crash is 100% repeatable and guaranteed to happen every time I've at

programs reopen upon close

Hi guys, I have a question about my PC (with win10). Every time when I close a program (ex Word, Skype, Zoom), it will automatically reopen again. I will have to close it the second time in order to close it completely. Please help, it is annoying.

Thanks in advance!

 

All my programs keep closing and reopening in the middle of using it

Hi, I have a question:

All of my programs keep closing themselves and reopening after about 3-5 minutes of being opened. This repeats all the time: The program closes itself and reopens itself automatically one second afterwards, then 5 minutes later the same happens again. This gets annoying especially when in the middle of a game. I encounter this problem on Google Chrome too, so it is not limited to games only and the cause of this problem is clearly the pc itself. Yesterday I scanned my computer for 3 hours straight with Microsoft Windows Defender and it encountered a Trojan File which I deleted. But what's also convinient is that this problem is lasting since the last windows update... (12.01.21) :/ I tried uninstalling the latest 2 updates that were made on the day this occured the first time, but my pc keeps doing it. I don't really have anti malware programs, but I had ashampoo, which I deleted two days ago. I hope anybody can help.

 

Need assistance with game crashes and freezes after changing PC location

I recently relocated my stationary PC, and since then, I've been experiencing issues with both Steam games and other games. Specifically, when launching Steam games, the loading screen freezes after a few seconds, causing Task Manager to crash, ultimately requiring a PC restart. Additionally, non-Steam games tend to close abruptly after 2-3 minutes of gameplay.

Error Message: No specific error messages are displayed; however, the loading screen freeze for Steam games prompts Task Manager to crash.

System Information:

• Operating System: Windows 11
  
• PC Specifications: GPU gigabyte R69xt gaming oc, CPU i5 13600k, etc.
  
• Game Platform: facing issues with Steam games or other gaming platforms like epic games
  

Actions Taken: I have already taken the following steps to address the issue:

1. Updated all drivers.
   
2. Attempted various troubleshooting methods found online.
   
3. Updated the BIOS to the latest version.
   

Despite these efforts, the problem persists, and I am unsure about the root cause. Any guidance or assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
