Seems like it happens when watching videos or playing games and it freezes my whole system for a couple seconds.

I posted the wrong logs above, that one had ransomware protection disabled. Here are the correct logs where the problem is occuring. mbst-grab-results.zip

I'm have the same issue, leaving ransomware protection on causes my PC to freeze every once in a while. Here are my logs as well to help find the issue. mbst-grab-results.zip

That's awesome, thanks for letting us know!

@ParanoiaBoy I tried playing Rise of the Tomb Raider when I was trying to find the cause of this issue to basically stress test my GPU and in the 30 minutes that I played I only had the freeze happen once, when it would've happened 10 times in Fortnite Save the World. I do freeze in Fortnite Battle Royale mode too but way less frequently. I'm not sure why it affects games differently, some games like Ironsight don't have the freezing issue at all, but I do know that Malwarebytes ransomware protection is the cause of it.

Yes I restarted after updating just to make sure and the problem still persists. Here are the new logs. mbst-grab-results.zip

I updated malwarebytes but the freezing issue didn't go away.

More specifically, ransomware protection is causing my freezing issue and disabling that stops it. When I play the game Fortnite (Save the World game mode) I consistently get freezes every 3 minutes that last 3-4 seconds. This freezing issue also occurs outside of just Fortnite or any other video game. It also occurs when chrome is open, watching videos or even when my PC is idle, but not as frequently. I disable ransomware protection and the freezing issue stops. I can reproduce this 100% of the time. When ransomware protection is running the most obvious way to test it is to open Fortnite and let the game run, my PC will freeze every 3 minutes for 3-4 seconds.
