Hi All,
Wondering if anyone had this problem recently?
I turned on my computer this morning and checked out a few sites and then started to do some chores. An hour later I came back to my computer and clicked on iexplorer to do more viewing and it didn't pop up ..only the hour glass just spinning around. I glanced at the taskbar and noticed the flag had a time on it. I moved the mouse to it and it said
" maintenance in progress" . I right-clicked to bring up the action center but nothing happened. I pressed the ctrl-alt-del but the task manager didn't come up either. My system was not responding to any keys I selected. This is the first time it ever happened to me.
Why does windows maintenance stop all action while it is doing this operation. I am thinking if it is defragging my drives it could take hrs This could ruin my day off and not be able to use my computer.
Holding the power button was the only way to stop this and restart my computer. not very pleased with how windows 8 is so controlling
cheers
