Troubleshooting browser crashes or performance issues on Windows 10

That is the magic solution! I turned off hardware acceleration in both browsers and they now work fine. Thanks to all who suggested this.
The only way to stop all this nonsense is not to use Edge or Chrome.
Try doing the fix that was earlier in the comments. Go into your settings for Edge or any chrome based browser, turn off hardware acceleration. It seems to be a fix that helps a lot of people.
After Edge updated, I was having the freezing issues still. I checked and found Hardware Acceleration was turned on again. I turned it off and no problems.
Also having this same issue. I'm running a Dell Inspiron which did get an Intel Grapucs Command Center update the same day. Firefox is working great. Any ideas appreciated!
