All browsers open then close upon fresh run after restart and randomly
Hi,
Really weird issue I am having with a clients PC. Its running Windows 10 20h2 btw.
Basically he reported issues with all browsers including Firefox, chrome, edge and internet explorer after a reboot whereby the browser when clicked will open and then crash/close. The second attempt stays open but will often close randomly whilst being used. Again this is happening with all browsers not just chrome etc so its not an extension causing this or an app specific issue.
Things I have tried...
- SFC scan which repaired items (ran twice until it said no problems found)
- Reset Internet options to defaults
- Remove Malwarebytes antivirus
- Removed any apps that could interfere such as VPN's etc
- Ensuring Windows is up to date
- Checked event logs but nothing obvious at the time of these events
I have yet to try...
- Starting Windows without third party start-up items/services
Does anyone have any more suggestions? I am nearly at the point of completing a fresh install but I don't want to if poss.
