I have the same error which occur if I leave PC untoched for some period of time, and after that explorer always freezes, and restarts itself. It is 100% reproducible issue.
I already update almost all drivers and bios, but nothing helped.
But I'm on Windows 10
Open the Settings App.
Go to System - Recovery.
Click the 'Reinstall Now' button in the 'Fix problems with Windows Uppdates ' section, then wait for that process to complete.
This process is not like re-installing Windows and will not affect your files, settings or installed software.
Hello, thanks for the response
This did not work, i just found out it only happends when i exit fullscreen on youtube.
Thanks again (=
