What to do if a Windows 10 computer or laptop freezes?
❕ Computer "freezing" actually refers to various technical problems. In this case, from the fact that an application "hangs" on the screen without working, until the system stops working and a blue screen appears - most of the users use this term.
💻 Some of these can be solved without turning the device off and on, and we'll cover them below:
1️⃣ Restart the graphics driver
▪️If the problem is related to the graphic part, for example, if the screen goes black after finishing the game, this method will work. We use the Win + Ctrl + Shift + B key combination to restart the video driver.
2️⃣ Close the "stuck" program
▪️Most often, a computer or laptop may have a problem due to the freezing of an application. In such cases, it is necessary to forcibly close that program through "Task manager" - "Dispatcher zadach". To do this, use the key combination Ctrl + Shift + Escape to call the "Task Manager", find and mark the program that does not respond to system requests, and click the "Remove Task" - "Snyat zadachu" button.
3️⃣ Normal computer shutdown
▪️If the above measures do not work, try to turn off and turn on your device in normal mode. To do this, press the "Pusk" ("Start", "Windows") key on the physical keyboard, if it is not working - the Ctrl + Esc key combination. You know how to turn the gadget off and on through the opened start menu, but before that you need to save the data (for example, the text being written in Word) and turn off the applications.
😉 You can also try to switch to the Windows desktop using Alt + Tab or Win + Tab key combinations.
4️⃣ Forced shutdown
▪️This method always works, but all the data that was not saved will be burned. Most computers have a special "Reset" button for forced shutdown.
✔️ In this case, it is required to hold down this button for at least five seconds; the same method can be used on desktop computers.
