Taskbar and some software frozen but can right click on W10 pro
Hi
I am using an Asus U46SV with 512 gb SSD (crucial-since 2013), 8 gb ram. It came with W7 enterprise and now on W10 pro. Just few days ago I noticed that the taskbar froze. Pressing the window button (keyboard) does not help. Left click on the windows button or the dropbox and otiher icons near the clock is not working. The status (dropbox update/whatsapp) has froze though the clock is still working. Whatsapp launches but freezes. If I right click on dropbox for example, I get a menu, but the menu won't disappear. I am able to manually close it via the right click task manager and end process there.
Windows+E still works and I can browse files and thats about it. Is my SSD dieing? I am making this thread on the laptop, so some of it is working. Desktop icons and icons in the taskbar can be left clicked.
Any ideas why my laptop is freezing in some places?
