This happened a few times, once when installing apps and having the browser open, once while extracting a .rar and browsing and another while installing Windows updates.
Last time this happened exactly like so, did a complete fresh OS install, followed by running a few .reg files, uninstallation of pre installed Windows apps, configured a few settings for Windows, installed motherboard and GPU drivers, connected to the internet and clicked on "check for updates" and when Windows had updates the second I clicked on "Install" the system froze with the mouse disappearing for about 2 seconds then it came back.
