This issue does not occur when starting Windows 10 in Safe Mode.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Microsoft claims that only a small number of users are facing this issue, and only, if data or apps are stored on a separate drive away from Windows drive. This is a typical scenario, when users are working with a small SSD that keeps only Windows 10, while data are stored on a hard disk. Microsoft suggests two workarounds till the issue is fixed:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Boot into safe mode and move the install location for Apps back to Windows drive.\n<li>Try a rollback to Windows 10 Version 1511 (if the system freeze after login, boot into safe mode and do the rollback).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/answers.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows\/forum\/windows_10-performance\/windows-10-may-freeze-after-installing-the\/5a60d75d-120a-4502-873c-8bfec65c82d0?page=1&amp;auth=1\" target=\"_blank\">thread<\/a> contains detailed step by step instructions to boot into the safe mode and how to rollback to Version 1511.
