  1. Windows 10 keeps on freezing after the last update


    So last night my PC was in sleep mode and decided that it's time to delete all my progress in few project that I clearly saved and were open while it updated itself..

    Since the update the PC is turning on and I manage to work for like 30 minutes to 1 hour and then all of a sudden it freezes and I have to hard restart it (holding down the power button like a caveman) I have 16gb of ram, it's an HP laptop connected to external monitor (they extend so it's like long screen thingy, you know what I mean)

    Here's what I'm usually using on my PC: like 3 VS code projects, 10 Firefox tabs, 1 word document, 3 notes in notepad++ and VLC for music with a playlist of 700 songs)

    I can see that before the freezing the CPU reaches 100%, so I tried to use as little software as possible and I only use a single monitor (the laptop's monitor itself isn't on, I project to the desktop monitor, so now it's only 1 monitor and it's not a crazy 4K gaming one, it's a 6 years old 23 inches 1080p monitor) also I only had Firefox with like 6 tabs opened and 1 note in notepad++ and only 2 VS Code projects open, and it's still reaching 100% with no apparent reason on why..

    I'd love to get suggestions on what to do with this problem because it's a huge pain.. thanks in advance Windows 10 keeps on freezing after the last update :)

    Windows keeps freezing up

    Hi Brian,

    If your computer is freezing, it could due to the operating system being outdated, or that some applications in your system is causing it to freeze, etc. For us to isolate the issue about Windows 10 freezing, kindly respond to the questions below:

    • When does Windows 10 hangs/freezes? Is it after logging in to Windows? Or is it when you are using an application?
    • Are there any third-party applications installed on your computer?
    • Did you upgrade to Windows 10 from a previous version of Windows? If yes, which version of Windows was previously installed on your computer?

    As a first troubleshooting step, we suggest that you check if there are updates that are waiting to be installed on your computer. If there are, kindly install them and restart your computer. After restarting, check if Windows 10 still freezes. Here's how
    to check for updates in Windows 10:

    • Press the Windows key + I to open the
      Settings
      app.
    • From Settings, select Update & security >
      Windows Update
      , then select Check for updates.

    We look forward to an update from you.

    Chrome keeps freezing on Windows 10

    Hi Pat,



    There may be a few reasons why your Google Chrome keeps on freezing. One reason is the browser that you're using. For us to further isolate your concern, we need you to answer the following:



    • Is this happening on other browsers as well (e.g. Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox)?
    • Does the issue persist only on a specific website or it occurs on all websites?
