carowe Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 My computer installed a windows update last night and now I cannot open any objects or specifications for any items without the software freezing. Any suggestions? Has anyone else experienced this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_P Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 This sounds like it may be a video driver issue. I'd recommend going to your computer manufacturer's website to download and install the most recent video driver update they provide for your machine.

Rpadge Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Windows is a PITA on stuff like this, just checking - but have you rebooted the computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carowe Posted November 6, 2020 Author Share Posted November 6, 2020 I'll check video driver and yes I've rebooted several times - but thanks for the reminder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoeGia Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 I was having a problem after the Windows update last week. Somehow Onedrive was stuck on replacing the User Library file and my system kept freezing. As soon as I shut off Onedrive, I was good to go. Your system is pretty robust so not sure that's your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a Driver Issue that sounds similar to yours back in X11 but have not seen it reported in X12 GeForce Experience should keep the Drivers Updated for you , assuming you ( Dell? ) are using it ? but I think Dell also has it's own Command Center or something too? The latest is 457.09 but I'm not having issues on 456.71 either. Available here too : Advanced Driver Search | NVIDIA If your Dell uses Nahimic Audio as some do , there is a known issue with it's Sonic Radar App causing Issues on Multi Monitor Systems too, there is a fix, I posted in the Tips section for that as well.

ChiefWariq Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Wow.. Thank you SO MUCH! You have no idea how stressful this issue was. I couldn't open Wall specifications at all. It froze my entire application and had to force close CA in order to get it functional again. Stopped the service mentioned, set it to manual and restarted CA, double clicked on a wall and it opened with no issues. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
