Chrome, Edge & Firefox, all crash and the OS becomes unresponsive, I can't recover it unless I shutdown.

Anyone else seeing this?

Update:

A temporary solution is to use recommended display resolution or change to MS basic display driver.

Known issues

[NEW] We’re investigating reports that some Insiders are experiencing freezes when using the browser and certain other apps after the previous Dev Channel flight.

Update:

I added build 25290 to the tiltle because even though the blog calls it fixed, some users are still experiencing this bug.

    Completely different display driver used for VM.

    No problem also when I use a Wi-Fi connected display on a real machine. 🤷‍♂️

    I thought that we've already established that the bug isn't driver specific as long as the default recommended resolution is used.

    Not all the drivers fail, but I had problems both with Intel and Nvidia.

    I cannot fail when I use a Wi-Fi connected display.

    Negative results with the VM.

    Everything works normally at any display resolution. 🤷‍♂️

    No sign of the bug after updating this VM to 25276

    It'd be nice to find out exactly why is the VM immune to this bug.

    This issue persist on build 25276

    Opening any browser or a random app crashes the system with no way to recover.

    Using the recommended display resolution or switching to MS basic display driver may or may not fix it.

    Kernel-Power errors are the two forced shutdowns I had to make in order to exit the OS
