So I built a new PC last November 1 and been using it every day. I have this issue where Windows 10 is randomly freezing when idle. I think it happened twice now and I only have Discord, Spotify, and Edge opened with a few tabs and windows open.
The behavior is that the windows can't be minimized or closed, I can't right-click, can't go to ctrl+alt+del to try and restart, the taskbar is weird when trying to click, and I can't shutdown nor restart.
I have the necessary drivers installed as well. The last resort is to hard boot (holding the power button for 8s for the PC to turn off) and turn it on again. I regularly run my Antivirus scans (Malwarebytes) and not finding any issues.
I'm not quite sure what to check in the Event Viewer as well so I can't pinpoint what may have caused the issue
Here are my current specs:
