I have that too! It started after an update at the beginning of this month. It seems to be a new bug that I cant reliably replicate. Do you have an AMD cpu/gpu?

Not op, I have AMD Ryzen 7, but I haven't had the issue. I have all Windows bloatware un-installed or disabled, though.

Edit: I had one issue (one time, so I forgot about it), but I think it was a user error (me). I had to uninstall Linux because I either didn't update Windows or Linux (I think it was Linux), and their security systems were in conflict. Windows wouldn't even start until I used the BIOS to uninstall Linux. I had a backup, but a lost of little bit of data because I couldn't figure out how to make a new one. I reinstalled the updated version, and I didn't have any more issues.
