  1. Windows 10 stops responding when a game or program crashes/freezes


    This happens to me with some games or programs. While I had win 7, I could switch to task manager and close it and that's it. Ever since I upgraded to 10 every freeze makes me unable to switch or open task manager. I manually turned off my pc, which isn't the best idea for my pc, but I couldn't help myself otherwise. After booting back up it kinda gets in a never ending loop in the booting up sequence. Some manual resets fixed it, but this is basically the process I have to go through whenever something freezes. Is there a simpler way to approach this, instead of me having to do the mentioned process?
