PC start freezing after sleep resume on random
Greetings,
I have a desktop PC that I did a clean Win10 Pro install on. Installation is up to date with all drivers. I have been using it for a few months with this new installation and I have noticed the following problem will happen at random only after the computer has gone to sleep and been resumed a few times (perhaps like 3 or 4):
After resuming sleep at random the explorer will stop responding when accessing secondary drives. I have 3 hard drives on my system, and when this problem happens I will try to open a file or access the drive through windows explorer but nothing happens except long loading time. Trying to click cancel on the load or navigating to another drive link through that same explorer window causes the window to become unresponsive.
Opening a new explorer window to navigate somewhere else works fine temporarily. But then I notice any programs/apps that are installed on the secondary drives stop responding and eventually the system will completely become unresponsive.
I think this is an issue with the whole hotswap system introduced in win 10. Because this kind of problem never happens if I don't put the computer to sleep. Also hibernation is disabled on this system.
