Windows 10: Windows 10 lags and freezes after new update

Hi, I have a problem that has been happening intermittently for about a year. I updated a year ago and I would get these 5 second bursts of lag that would slow audio and the display. It would happen about once every few hours. I updated about 3 months later and it stopped. I updated last month and now its back, but worse. I've had to restart my PC twice today because it was so bad.

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

Windows 10 fully updated. Mouse freezes now and then.

Hi,

I recently updated to windows 10 from 8.1
my specs are under my profile.

I am using a Logitech G400.

Note that, I did not have issues before all the windows updates.

It started with freezing every definite amount of time like 4 second gap. I saw that Logitech has brought out a new driver in mid June, and it seems to make it a bit better. Still it came back after some time.

I have disabled the Windows Update service since it always tries to download chunks when i am gaming. Not sure if this is related to that.

I have run stress test on CPU, FPU, RAM, GPU , HDD all of them to emulate the kind of freezing i get, but it seems its not hardware related.

Finally fedup of curzor lagging every few seconds i decided to try USB 3 port. That did the job, but after some time the mouse starts freezing again, this time at random intervals.

I have noticed it goes up when i am playing Minecraft. I have Java 10.* installed.



Please help *Frown

i tried removing realtek audio as well, but that did not help.

I am using Eset Nod32 antivirus.

I am monitoring my HDD, but there is nothing being demanded at the time of stutter. Page file is system managed. HDD is not very old. Its a WD Blue EZEX and shows no errors. I even have new SATA cables.

AMD HD7700 drivers has also been updated.
