Description of problem
After a while of use (1-4 hours), my task bar and network settings will freeze up. My start button doesn't work, but a window pops up for a second when I click it, then disappears. I can still switch between programs in the task bar though. I have an ethernet connection and mobile hotspot running to give the rest of my devices WiFi. (Only my phone and Apple TV which isn't connected 99% of the time.)
When this issue began
When I started using ethernet for internet. (Can't use WiFi as the signal from the router doesn't reach.)
Recurring issue
Yes
Date of purchase
6/12/17
Under Warranty
Yes
Cause/Steps to recreate the issue
It's mostly spontaneous, but use the computer for a little while, then click the network settings icon in the task bar. The window pops up but just with an airplane mode icon to click, the other icons have disappeared. When you click off of that it freezes the task bar.
What I've tried so far to resolve the issue
Killing explorer, which works but then my network icon disappears. I can't access the network settings in the windows settings while this happens either.
