I have certainly experienced similar problems on Windows. It was always
accompanied by a massive CPU consumption by Emacs. So, something got into a
tight loop. It has maybe happened 3-4 times, since Win 10 came out, so not
the frequency the OP suggested. I'm sure it has already been suggested that
you start up with --no-init-file, and if the problem vanishes, start
digging into what your init file is loading/executing to determine the
issue.
