Windows 11 Home Version 24H2 OS build 26100.8875
Hello,

I have a Dell Inspiron 3793 with Windows 11, all updates were installed.

Lately my laptop freezes very often, almost every 20 minutes or so and usually lasts about 5 minutes then it's back to normal. I have done the sfc scann and it didn't find any issues, did virus check with AVG and Malwarebytes, nothing detected.

Anyone could tell me what could be the issues that causing the freezes ?

Any comments/suggestions are much appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello,

I have successfully removed everything related to Dell Support Assist and so far so good, will see how it goes in the next few days and will post an update here. I'll try V2 Log Collector instrctions later too.

Thank you to everyone's assistance.

It has been three hours now since I uninstalled everything related to Dell Support Assist and my laptop hasn't frozen once, so wonderful! That's one of the last things I would have thought that will cause my laptop froze so much. Before the uninstall, I did notice there were several Dell processes in the Task Manager and wonder why there are so many and why were they all running, now I know those were the culprits. Now they are all gone.

Agrees with what I found then. I dimly remember despite uninstalling DSA there were some leftovers which I disabled using Autoruns. I now view these update tools as the work of the devil and just do manual driver updates by checking for new updates directly periodically.
