Windows 10 1709 freeze randomly

Hey mister. You were right I should be more specific. You'll see an option called Virtualization in BIOS ,check it out. Hyper-V in task manager literally refers to that one I mentioned earlier. I wonder you could actually reach the security screen during the freeze....I couldn't do that earlier though. If it still persists you have to wait for MS to give yo patch because I've tried all other options to rectify this. One thing that might definitely solve this is......resetting your system with backup option. Hope none wants to do that stuff!

I am letting everyone know what my last actions were to try to resolve this problem. I can't tell you if these will be a working solution for you, and I am not sure whether or not they were my solution. All I can say is that after doing these, I have not had any problems for the last 4 weeks.

I thought all my drivers were up to date, but got tired of trying to check them one at a time. So, I installed Drive Booster 5 by IObit to do a mass check of all my drivers. It found 4 of my drivers were out of date and allowed me to replace them with current versions. I also made sure to install the latest NVIDIA Graphics Driver for my system. I have had no freezes since.

Good Luck

Hi. I started the thread but am no further than when I started. Could you be a little more specific about the Hyper-V for multithreading? I've gone into BIOS & could not locate anything like it. However in Comp Mgmnt services there are a slew of HV items non of whic resemble yours. Does any of these refer to what you were talking about. I have to constantly ctrl+alt+del to get the blue security screen & dbl click Task Mgr (even if it is already on my desktop-frozen) to unfreeze everything & also stop the random shrinking of the screen & fonts in which I hafta do several diff steps to set the view right. Sometimes diff ones at diff times. This really sucks. MY HP Laptop Pavilion i7core 5th gen was working perfectly until 1709 Creator update. Also scrolling goes rogue & locks. I cant believe MS is ignoring this. JP Casey

Go to settings/apps/programs and features(on the right side of the window)/Turn Windows Features on or off(on the left side of the screen)/Hyper-V. For me, Hyper-V was selected(turned off), I selected it to turn it off, and that seems to have resolved my issue(s).
