Windows 10 freezes a few seconds after encoding starts

Post by MANAB4532 »

I have been having problems with encoding files in Handbrake.
Windows 10 is freezing up about 2 seconds into the encoding process and I am having to RESET the PC to continue working.
This problem has come up recently. Until about two months ago, I had no problems.
HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):




Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):
