A frozen Desktop with weird interactions
Hey guys so i got a bit of a nail scratcher. I'm sure restarting the PC will help but there are some things i didnt get a chance to save that i would like to before doing that option. I am using a 2 monitor setup but have unplugged one to try and fix this issue
Currently on the latest win 10 version
So what happens is my screen is mostly frozen after trying to run a game it was able to close it however the desktop is kind of frozen. Funnily enough running narrator highlights things in blue boxes and still somewhat works i can still do keyboard shortcuts like CTRL+r to get into the run command to boot things like powershell and command prompt
Restarting windows explorer can fix it for maybe 5 seconds and the weirdest interaction ive had is if i ALT+TAB into something, it doesnt show up because the screen is in this frozen start but then when i use WIN+TAB instead it shows on the screen, again for about 2 seconds before it freezes! Also sometimes the stuff open will appear on the taskbar and sometimes it wont.
I've attempted to restart GPU drivers and restart explorer but have gotten nowhere, if there is any chance i can restart something else to at least save my stuff before just doing a restart that would be great
