Why Does Entire Laptop Freeze In About 1 Minute After Log In
Nov 7, 2015
My computer worked great for the first 2 or 3 weeks after I installed Windows 10. Then a few days ago it started freezing after about 1 minute once I log in. The computer becomes completely unresponsive, and the only way to shut it off is by holding down the power button. A window pops up about OneDrive not being able to synchronize, then it freezes a few seconds after that. My laptop is an Acer Aspire | M. Intel core i5.

I have an HP DV7 laptop that I upgraded from Win 7 Home to Win 10 Home. After the upgrade I noted that once my laptop goes into hibernation 1 time and you bring it out of hibernation, the laptop then ignores the power settings and immediately goes back into hibernation after 3 minutes of inactivity. As long as you're moving the mouse or typing on the keyboard you're OK but if your totally inactive then in 3 minutes the machine will go into hibernation. Note also that this does this even when the laptop is directly connected to a power source and not running directly on the batteries.

To preface: I've tested all my hardware and it seems to be fine. The problem most likely comes from software but I've got no clue what it is exactly.
I've done several clean installs trying to fix this to no avail. Usually, 10 will work fine for a few days with zero problems. Then, hard freeze out of nowhere no matter what I'm doing. Hard drive light turns off, everything is unresponsive including mouse, keyboard, touchpad, etc while I'm stuck staring at the screen where it froze. I'm forced to hold down the power button to reboot. THEN, once this initial hard freeze happens, they become more and more frequent until I get a hard freeze right before the login screen, in which I'm forced to try another clean install. Safe mode is affected by this, HOWEVER I can use "Safe Mode With Command Prompt" totally fine.

I downloaded Windows 10 yesterday evening on my new laptop, which, according to the tests I ran prior, is fully Windows 10 compatible. Nevertheless, just since downloading Windows 10, when I fold down the laptop's screen to close it, it freezes. I open it to a black frozen screen that is unresponsive whether I tap the touchscreen, keys and/or power button. Therefore, since Windows 10, I have to reboot my laptop every time I open it in order to use it, which is an inconvenience that nobody should have to suffer. The laptop never had so much as the slightest glitch before Windows 10, and I want Microsoft to fix this.

I've just upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. I have an HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC. This happened twice: when I left my laptop and came back after an hour or so, the screen was black (as usually), but the laptop was completely unresponsive. I couldn't wake it up neither by moving/clicking my mouse nor by hitting any key on the keyboard (both external and embedded mice/keyboards). Furthermore, the LED of my laptop on/off h/w switch button was constantly on, instead of blinking.

When Windows 10 starts up I am requested to input a password which I know and I do. I wish to get rid of this entire sign in screen and process, so I go to settings, accounts. sign-in options , password and click on change (hoping to reset it to nothing or blank) where I am requested to put in my password. I input the same one I used at Windows 10 start up and I get the error message "The password is incorrect. How can this be and how to I find out what to input here so that I can get rid of the initial sign in screen? I somehow messed this up but cannot fix it.

I just upgraded to Windows 10 and the entire screen appears to be stretched horizontally, i.e. both texte and pictures are stretched in the horizontal direction. I tried every screen resolution and the same problem exists for each. I have a 64 bit machine.

I'm about to buy a new Win 10 gaming rig and wanted to transfer my entire Steam programs + files (most of the games I currently play are *unfortunately* on STEAM) from my old Win 7 rig using an external HDD.

Recently I had to reinstall Windows 10 on my laptop. Earlier I had downloaded and installed many apps from Windows Store. I have a copy of C:Users{user}AppDataLocalPackages with me.
Is it possible to get back the apps by copying the entire folder to my machine? Is there any option to get back the apps? Or should I download and install them once again?

Is it possible to move the entire "Users" directory from C drive to D drive and have it be recognized without doing anything special?
I do a system image of my C drive regularly but my D drive is continuously backed up to a local NAS and I would like my user information backed up the same way.

So I updated to Windows 10 from 8.1 Pro this morning and all was fine until a couple hours ago. Now, after about a minute of uptime, my tablet becomes unresponsive. I've let it sit for up to 20 minutes and nothing happens.

I have a PC running Windows 10, but it is taking an unusually long time to boot. It can take more than 5 minutes, even though the boot drive is a 250GB Crucial MX200 with the latest firmware. I know that this is a very vague issue, but if i should provide more info for you, let me know.
My motherboard is an Asus Q87M-E btw.

I have windows 10 installed on a ssd drive and my boot time is around 2 minutes. I've tried everything that I could find online, such as: disable startup programs, enable fast boot etc. . I had some corrupt image files, but I repaired them using DISM and now 'sfc /scannow' is not returning any errors.
I want to mention that I did a clean install of windows 10(I did not upgrade it, I removed what I had before completely).
I had windows 7 which was booting really fast.
My system model is z97x-gaming 3 and I have 16GB RAM.

My desktop monitors go to sleep after about a minute of inactivity no matter what I set sleep mode to do. I currently have it on "never" and it still sleeps to the lock screen. Extremely annoying. I talked to some others having the same issue but no one has a clue or has seen the issue discussed.

I've been using Windows 10 on my pc for quite some time now. There's allways been the option for lock screen on customization, but i've never seen it. I've recently found there are several ways to "lock" the screen on Windows 10 Pc (like using Windows+L).I also remember to read somewhere that usin lock screen reduces the lifetime of the ssd.I would like to know:
- Is there a way put the lock screen automatically, after 1 minute of inactivity (or 5) for example?.
-Is it true that using a lock screen would reduce the lifetime on the ssd?
-What are your personal recommendations about this?.

On Windows 8.1 pro, my computer would instantly connect to the wifi network from sleep. However, when I upgraded to windows 10 pro, the computer takes about 1 minute to reconnect to the network (which is very annoying). I have turned off the "allow the computer to turn of this device to save power" option for my network adapter, but this does not change anything. Does any body know how to fix this (or just prevent the computer from disconnecting from the network entirely during sleep as this is a desktop and I don't care about power management)

I set the screen saver to " blank" and " 10 min. " and at some point it re-sets and won't initialize and the time is set to " 1 min. " It never comes on at that point.
So, I set it again. and again at some point it's back to as if it was not set again.
At first I thought it was just me not doing something right but it happened to my Mom's computer as well.
Update : It seems to change when I shutdown and then start up in the morning as well as any re-boot.

When it goes to sleep or hibernate mode, it takes more than a minute to wake up and show the lock screen. Probably a driver issue...

Sometimes it freeze up and I can only hard reboot it, mouse and keyboard doesn't works(audio sometimes works and sometimes it stops). I had this problem with windows 7 too. This problem is very random and I had it for a long time, it can happen every day in a week or just once in a few months.
I've run memtest86+ and didn't show any problems (I stopped it at 15 passes). Also checked my HDD and SSD but they were fine.
