HELP!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Hello!\u00a0<i>(Apologies in advance if my wording suffers from the immense stress)<\/i><\/p>\n<p>I got a\u00a0<b>brand new ASUS<\/b>\u00a0laptop in August 2020 &#8211; the\u00a0<b>TUF Gaming A15 FA506I<\/b>, but despite the good resources, it has already frozen a couple times while working on it. And now this time, it freezes with a ton of open work &#8211; including a plethora of unsaved screenshots &amp; images.<\/p>\n<p>The laptop has been\u00a0<b>fully updated<\/b>, and the PC is not placed in a heated environment. It doesn&#8217;t\u00a0<i>feel<\/i>\u00a0hot either.<br \/>\nI have just figured whether a setting like &#8216;enable hardware acceleration&#8217; could be an issue, but I dunno if that applies to other browsers than Firefox.<\/p>\n<p>I was running Pathfinder, Microsoft Edge, OpenOffice Writer, Opera, Notepad and Steam, Paint windows (not the best, I know, but still).<br \/>\nMany articles state that &#8216;Paint now automatically recovers&#8217; unsaved work &#8211;\u00a0<b>but this only occurs at system restarts for Windows updates.<\/b>\u00a0And even\u00a0<b>then<\/b>, it&#8217;s only auto-recovering SOME of the open Paint windows. And that 1-2 other time (last month), I didn&#8217;t have this many windows open at all.<\/p>\n<p>So, why does such a new laptop freeze, despite no apparant temperature overheat, overclocking or personal altering of the BIOS?<\/p>\n<p>But first of, let me ask if there&#8217;s\u00a0<i>any<\/i>\u00a0way to restore these Paint windows &#8211; or\u00a0<b>make Windows auto-recover<\/b>\u00a0them? Last time I tried force-restarting it myself, with no luck. I&#8217;m belaying any action for now in case of hints.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"iawp_total_views":10},"question-category":[65],"question_tags":[],"class_list":["post-6167","question","type-question","status-publish","hentry","question-category-windows-10"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question\/6167","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/question"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6167"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6167"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"question-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question-category?post=6167"},{"taxonomy":"question_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question_tags?post=6167"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
