ESENT Errors windows 10

[oldhat]

Lately my machine freezes often for 10 - 50 seconds sometimes it would freeze but I can still move between windows but it wont do anything other times it would freeze to such a degree that I cannot move my mouse curser.

I have no idea what this can be I noticed it after that last "major" update.

This is recently from my event viewer, but again I am not entirely sure what I am looking at although these time stamps correlate to the freezes.

Are you using a Nvidia graphics card?

...Yes

GTX 580

I have seen a few similar cases, seems to be a conflict with Nvidia drivers and Windows updates. Removing and re-installing the driver sometimes works, else you may have to install a different version of the driver(older or newer). Hope that helps...

Try temporarily disabling some MS apps that uses ESENT, for example Exchange, AD, Search, Update and Help. Maybe there's some kind of locking going on, which is freezing the PC.

Any idea how?

(I'm more a consumer than a power user so I'll need guidance. )

Certainly sounds plausible. I'll Uninstal the Nvidia drivers and then reinstall.

Still no dice with this issue

Windows will freeze every few minutes and then this is in the event viewer

svchost (13492) Unistore: A request to write to the file "C:\Users\Princess Thor\AppData\Local\Comms\UnistoreDB\store.vol" at offset 102400 (0x0000000000019000) for 4096 (0x00001000) bytes succeeded, but took an abnormally long time (20 seconds) to be serviced by the OS. This problem is likely due to faulty hardware. Please contact your hardware vendor for further assistance diagnosing the problem.

Just a shot in the dark but do you have Intel intergraded + Nvidia GPU?

Nope.

AMD 6 core CPU
And had in this time 4 GPUs, AMD 580, Nvidia 1070, 580 and currently 1080Ti

Then not the same error as per koeks525 thread. Similar but not the same.
