    waiting for cache


    Why is it that no matter what I do when I try to open a website, everything freezes totally for upto 5 mins with the message "waiting for cache" sometimes I just do a soft reboot and then sometimes it works sometimes not. I have windows 10 x64, AMD fx6300, Ga-990FXA-UD3 motherboard.

    This happens with Internet explorer, Chrome and the new Edge May 2020.

    I have tried clearing the cache, deleting history, reinstalling Chrome and internet explorer all to no avail.

    :)

    PC Freezing with "Waiting for Cache"

    Oh shoot, that's one thing I forgot to add. I've exhausted everything I could find on the web. Here's what I've done;

    * Cleared the cache of Chrome and Windows itself. Also, since this happened after installing chrome onto a freshly installed windows 10, it cant be just that I have alot of built-up cache.
    * Edited the control panel's power plan to never put the disk to sleep
    * Additionally, one page suggested disabling the setting to write cache to the SSD at all, but it said that would have some drawbacks so I did not try it. I also figured if that was always a cause for this then more people would have this issue with chrome on SSDs.

    That's what I can remember of what I've tried that I forgot to mention.

    Why has this been moved to 'Browsers and Email'? It can happen outside of my browser.
