No luck on MS support site either.

Hi,

I apologize for the delay in response.

I suggest you to perform clean boot and check, using this Microsoft Article because may be a third party application is causing this issue.

http://social.technet.microsoft.com...ow-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows-10.aspx

NOTE: 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. You
may also troubleshoot or determine what conflict is causing the problem by performing a clean boot. You must log on to the computer as an administrator to be able to perform a clean boot. Your computer may temporarily lose some functionality when you perform
a clean boot. When you start the computer normally, the functionality returns. However, you may receive the original error message, or experience the original behavior if the problem still exists. If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings
may prevent you from following these steps.

Once you perform clean boot do refer to the section “How to reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting” to boot the computer in normal mode.



Hope this information helps. Please let us know if you need any other assistance with Windows in future. We will be happy to assist you.

Happy to. Try and keep the file to 4 gigs or less. I am working on a tablet that only has 8 gigs of ram.

 

I had this on a tablet after the latest Windows 10 update. From what I discovered it's usually a driver conflict that causes this.
In my case it was the display driver that had been replaced during the upgrade.

Check all device drivers are the correct versions for a start.
