Hey, over the past few days my computer has suddenly stopped apps like Chrome and Discord while I was playing Minecraft. I’m not sure what’s happening except that after the crashes, Task Manager shows Windows suspending a process to boost performance. Minecraft uses only a small amount of RAM and puts a lot of demand on the CPU, but it hasn’t caused any other issues before. Why does Windows sometimes kill processes for other programs and make them crash? It started around April 1st, and I’m wondering how to fix this.
