    Photo screensaver - hangs or slow to "wake up"


    Hi

    I use the Win10 built-in photo screensaver.

    If I try "wake up" my PC (ie. click on keyboard or move /click mouse), the computer seems to hang (or is slow) to exit the screensaver mode.

    I do use a Microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse.

    Has anyone experienced this and if so, what is the fix?

    Thanks

    :)

    Just updated Windows 10 with KB4022405 and KB4020821 now NO AUDIO

    After this HUGE update Edge now has no Favorites. When opening "Favorites" Edge locks up and computer must be restarted. ScreenSaver does not wake up. Must also then restart.
