    Windows 10 recent updates freezing my PC


    I have an HP notebook which I migrated from Windows 7 to Windows 10 more than a year ago. Now it appears that after a recent update, the PC partially freezes with intermittent graphic noise displaying on the screen with the mouse partially freezing. I tried to re-install a 2019 build offline, and that seems to make the PC stable again, but once I re-connect it back to the internet, the PC gets forcefully updated and the problem starts to re-occur.


    Please help me with a workaround to make the notebook useful again.

    :)

    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
