Has anyone figured out a way to get the Windows 11 OS to stop crashing? My computer is near non-functional as I can't even use it for more than 10 minutes.

And honestly anyone looking into downloading Windows 11 should NOT download.

Over the past week or so that I've had Windows 11 my computer has crashed at least twice a day and today it's crashed 5 times right after start up.

Please help!

    Don't know if this helps anybody, but been having issues with windows 11 killing m.2 drives, games crashing, ect. For the last 2 years. I like to oc my hardware so i'm always messing with stuff in the bios, updating bios. Everything was ruining great for once then after updating my bios problems,problems, games not installing(crashing system reset)

    The culprit ended up being Secureboot settings. In bios had the tpm module thingy was enabled, but when i checked it in windows system>privacy & security> windows security> device security> security processor details NO TPM SHOWED UP.

    The problem was in the bios in secure boot setting I had it in CUSTOM MODE instead of STANDARD, It said it was active but not totally I guess.

    Once I got the TPM module to show up in windows all my issues disappeared.

    Hope this helps...

    I bought a new Intel NUC laptop i7 11th Gen Intel , 2.8 Ghz, 16 Gb RAM w/ 500 Gb SSD mid of last year. Currently, I am on my 3rd unit as the two previous ones were replaced by Intel due to malfunctions presumably caused by the Windows 11 upgrade. The last one just turned off and didn't turn on again. That's only after a month it got replaced. I don't know what's up with Windows 11 but it has prompted me many times to upgrade but I'm avoiding it for now.

    After exhausting every other solution I could find for the Win 11 hangs (usually when running MS Flight Simulator), I decided to test the same app on the same computer but with Win 10. So using a dual boot, I put MSFS on it's own SSD and kept other apps to a minimum.

    I'm sorry to report that shortly after doing that Win 10 started hanging a few minutes into MSFS also. Flight Sim Help, after analyzing the requested files, responded:

    It's still the same thing. There are no errors generated when the app locks up which leads me to think the issue might be related to an OS error.

    I built a very high-end system mostly for that sim. So it pains me to say that the more resources I give it, the more unstable Windows 10/11 seems to become. Pure speculation though, on my part - but my old, slow Win 10 computer did not have this problem.

    After 6 months of struggle as described in my reply of 11/18/22 above, still having W11 lockups on a daily basis. W11 "event viewer" reports literally hundreds error events clustered around time of each W11 crash. Many are 3rd party drivers/apps but many are also W11 systems. Is it that W11 has created a bad environment for apps to run & then locks up as it can't handle all the errors? Asking Microsoft to contact me for analysis of each Event Viewer logs......Tom Hasty
