    Windows 10 freezes randomly but cursor moves


    I'm running Windows 10 Home on my laptop and sometimes it freezes randomly but the cursor works and windows media player keeps playing music but everything else is unresponsive. It's been happening for about 5 months now. A quick restart fixes it, but after a few days it freezes again and the cycle continues. I have a 2 TB Hard disk, 8 GB DDR4 RAM, 4 GB Graphics. I haven't had any recent hardware changes.

    I use Bitdefender Antivirus and keep it up to date. The problem usually occurs whenever I'm browsing the internet.


    I ran the following commands and no errors were shown, but I keep getting the problem.

    •- DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
    •- DISM.exe /Online /Cleanu p-image /Restorehealth
    •- DISM.exe /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup
    •- sfc /scannow

    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.

    Turning off fast startup helped with this issue for another user on a different forum. For newbies, see steps Windows 10 Freezes Randomly.
