  1. Windows 10 freezes on saving files


    For last 2 weeks, I am experiencing intermittent freeze/complete when saving files to One Drive. My preference is to save all files I download files from the internet or save email attachments to One Drive. I am experiencing freeze for one in every 10-15 files and only way to recover is kill browser or even re-start. My browser is Chrome. Freeze happens immediately after selecting"save as".

    Stopping the OneDrive agent didn't help.


    I have Surface 2 Laptop 16GB with Windows 10 Home Edition.

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Saves log files ?

    You can either read the files in Windows or my preferred method is.....

    Download CCcleaner from here...........

    CCleaner Professional | Try the world’s most trusted PC cleaner, free!

    You can then run cleaner, you will see the log files listed, then if you right click you can save as a text file and then have a read. You may also get an "error reporting" log listed seperatly.
