    PCSPECIALIST New PC keeps freezing and needing reset

    No, I'm not happy with questionable advice on the web. I am sure you're right, it's not Alt+Tab. It's just happened again as I started typing in this reply. I had Alt+Tabbed out of a Windowed display of the Elite Dangerous game, but everything froze here and in that too, I will have to stalk...

    Do I need Bitlocker recovery keys for Safe Mode? I haven't been sent any by PCS, and there are none on my Microsoft account. That link for starting in Safe Mode says : From Settings Press Windows logo key + I on your keyboard to open Settings. If that doesn't work, select the Start button...

    PCSPECIALIST New PC keeps freezing and needing reset

    I got my new PC delivered to me yesterday. Running sfc /scannow found corruptions in Windows files and DISM restorehealth fixed them, but randomly when browsing this forum on Edge or doing other simple Windows tasks with several apps open it just freezes, and I can't close apps on the Task...
