    Windows Acting up/Not Responding


    Within the last week I've started getting some strange behavior from my PC. I'll first notice it when my web browser will stop loading things properly, like a twitch stream, and when I refresh it'll load the stream again for about a second then just buffer. When this happens it's like all of my applications and windows stop working. For example, I can't open up any applications as the computer basically acts like I did nothing. Right clicking anything does nothing as well. I'll generally try to restart at this point but the windows start menu shows blank and the shut down or restart buttons do nothing when I click on them.

    Any ideas what is going on?

    Thanks!

    I believe the author of the post below had the same issue but there was never a solution given.

    ACT Pro 2013 will not open in Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    The most likely causes on a standalone are a damaged or invalid .pad file or SQL is not running, or is damaged.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if the issue persists.


      • Click your Windows Start button, choose Run and type in actdiag.


      • When ACT! Diagnostics comes up, click Databases, the Database List.


      • Locate your database in the list, right-click on it and select Detach. Make sure you know the filepath to your database before detaching it.


      • When the database has been detached, open My Computer (or Windows Explorer) and browse to the location of your database.


      • Locate the .PAD file for your database [database name].pad and delete it.


      • Reopen ACT!...you will get a message that the last database opened cannot found, then will be taken to the Open Database dialog box.


      • At the bottom of this box, change the Files of Type to .adf, browse to the location of your database and double-click on the .adf file for your database.


      • You will get a message that ACT! will verify your database, click OK and ACT will reattach your database to SQL and create a new .pad file.

      • Hope this helps.

    Windows Acting up/Not Responding

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Windows Acting up/Not Responding :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
