I run Win 10 Home which came pre-installed on the HP pc I have been using since 1-13-20, a little over a year. I have never intentionally installed an update. The disease I am chasing is:
The latest time this hit (today) I had MS Defender running a full system scan which goes on for hours as you know. In todays' diseased incident that Scan was the only thing I could find still running (it was going right along having scanned 171000 files and still going. I could find NO WAY to bring up anything else, to move the scan dialog box to the left screen, or to start up ANY other software. Stopped it and Power Booted again.
NOTE: while running (like right now) I have no stoppage or issues. Seems happy and runs everything just fine. But If I walk away for a while it will hang.
Of course my first belief is that MS installed some unwanted #$%^& update and those updates are the culprits but I want to gather other' opinions and experiences.
Anyone seen this disease?
- Oct 2020 first incident. I run 2 screens. Left one went black, right one went greyish blue. Stayed that way. Only way out is to reboot full power down/up.
- Happened again 3/5/21. Happened again twice today 3/31/21. Always unable to recover except via power down.
- I recognize the dark left/greyish blue right screen appearance as one of the momentary stages while the PC is powering Up. It is there only briefly.
