Occasional (daily) freezing

Paul Smith2

I'm currently on Quicken R62.16 (latest update) using a Lenovo Yoga laptop (2024) on Windows 11 (24-H2) (700 GB free space on solid state C:,

What I have been experiencing for about the last month is a total freeze in Quicken when doing random things (such as accepting downloaded transactions from OSU, reviewing the impact on various accounts of potential purchases through the "Tools/Manage Bills & Income Reminders" tool, and other times I can't all remember.

I can close Quicken and restart it without rebooting in which case it continues to function as expected. What I note is that Quicken is consuming about 25% of processor resources when I do this — suggesting it has somehow gone into a "loop".

Since this usually only happens once a day or so, I considered it a nuisance — but it is annoying. Has anyone else been experiencing this problem and if so found a workaround?
