Windows 10: Windows 10, Computer completely freezes randomly ALL day. Forced restart necessary.

Ok, I have about had it with this issue. It's been going on about a year now.

I have pretty much completely rebuilt this computer, all new parts, even a new case...

My computer randomly freezes. I can walk away and leave the computer running to go do something.

Come back 30 minutes later and it's frozen. I usually only have my web browser open at any given time with several tabs.

It'll freeze while I am using it too, browsing the web, etc.

I have to force a restart by holding the power button until it shuts down.

I have replaced the motherboard, ram, hard drive, CPU, keyboard, mouse, monitor. I am at al loss.

I have tried checking the event viewer but it doesn't have a chance to catch whatever it is that is happening before the system freezes so the only thing I do see is on reboot that the system shut down unexpectedly.

I really am out of ideas, I have searched the Internet for possible solutions but am having no luck.

I am just shy of throwing the whole system out the window. After a year of this, I am over it.

Does anyone have any ideas?
Here is my system info, if anything else is needed please ask.

Windows 10 freezes randomly

I had already tried turning off fast startup, to no avail.
Will look at the list you provided, thanks. Hard to do when computer freezes on the Windows loading screen though. *Biggrin

I had tried that as well... no result.

 

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
