    Windows 10 freezes/stutters when isntaling/removing drivers


    I am unable to install/update/disable some drivers related to audio and network (Realtek, Intel, etc). Same happens using driver installers (EXE) and device manager. Every time I do mentioned actions Windows starts stuttering: cursor freezes few times a second, some programs don't run I'm also unable to restart PC. It stucks on restarting screen. Safe boot, scannow, RestoreHealth don't help. Task manager and event viewer don't show anything unusual. Any ideas?

    Win 10 CU (not FCU) stutters and freezes a lot with various operations

    I get momentary freezes and stuttering with a range of Windows menu operations. *sarc These are the ones that are top of mind but I'm sure there are others. Win 10 Pro 64, up to date on patches.



    • Xing out a FireFox tab
    • Click on FILE menu (drop down is delayed)
    • FILE > Print (printer list or print menu is delayed)
    • Selecting a higher level on the file path in the SAVE menu
    • Search menu at bottom of Windows
    • Typing in many situations.

    Any suggestions? Or this this a known problem in Win 10? I've had this problem for some time, but lately it has gotten me really PO'ed.*Confused

    Unlocked Realtek HD Audio Drivers Windows 7 & 8 (With Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive)

    DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .

    'micro stutters' [cbs log included]


    Ok now we know you are on the latest version (note: you should update your specs on this site to avoid future confusion) there are a number of threads that have already suggested a number of fixes for stuttering. Try this one and work through the various suggestions.
