Howto fix: Windows 10 freezes and lags after sleep
For some time I was plagued by a little, but rather annoying problem on my Windows 10 PC. Once the computer woke up from sleep mode, it freezes several times per minute for a few seconds. Explorer windows open slowly, websites won’t load and the sound drops out. The mouse was still responsive.
I am not alone with this problem, because I have found several forum threads during my research, where users complaint about this problem. However, I found the solution for this problem, but only after a very long search.
Refine the problem
In almost all forums it was suggested to upgrade the drivers of all hardware, update to a newer BIOS version and/or completely reinstall Windows. However, my drivers have all been updated and also for the BIOS there was no update. A new and clean Windows installation was not an option for me.

Update: Cloud Downloader 3.1
The weekend is almost over and I was diligent. So there is a new update for the Cloud Downloader.
In addition to some bug fixes, there are also one, two small new features this time. So it’s not a pure bugfix release.
In version 3.1 you there are inter alia the following improvements:
———————————————
New features
Songs from the Soundcloud-Charts are supported now
If you don’t like the cat gifs (animations) during the download, you can disable them by now
If you like the animations, but don’t like cats, you can switch to dogs, sloths, donkeys, fails or wins.
The searchtype “albums” is also supported by now
Bugfixes
Fixed some bugs in the song search
Lags and freezes while showing the animated gifs belong to the past
Better stability of the song search (less”no song found” = more fun)
You want it? You can get it! The downloadlink for the new version can be […]
Update: Cloud Downloader 3.0
Feels like I’m having a run. Thus, today there is an update for the Cloud Downloader. This time the new version number is 3.0 – and did you get it? We have a round version number. And this means…
…tday there is not only bug fixes, but also new features. What exactly has changed, I want to summarize in the following. But first have a look at some screenshots!
New features
From now on the search screen will show you the filesize (in megabyte) of all tracks together. Moreover it shows also the size of the selected songs. Thus, you can estimate before downloading, if your download […]
Update: Cloud Downloader 2.9.7
Barely a few days after the release of version 2.9.6, a new version of the Cloud Downloader is available for download.
In version 2.9.7, there are, as also in the last two updates, no new features but bugfixes.
Since the SoundCloud API has changed a bit in the background, the ID3 tags have not been fully generated. This could be particularly noticed by missing cover art. (Thanks to you all, the diligent commentators, who drew my attention to this bug.)
Anyway. New version, new luck. In Version 2.9.7 now back with ID3 tags and album artwork.
The current version can be found in the main article about the Cloud Downloader at the following link:
Download: Cloud Downloader 2.9.7
Update: Cloud Downloader 2.9.6
The last update of the Cloud Downloader was two weeks ago. Since then I got a lot of feedback from you all by e-mail. So, among other things, two bugs could be identified. Therefore, today there is a new version.
The version 2.9.6 of the Cloud Downloader includes the following changes:
Previously, when specifying a “/likes” URL only the songs were observed. If a complete playlist was liked, its songs have been disregarded. Now all the songs, even those from “embedded” playlists, are respected.
The “/playlists” URLs from the profile pages could not be read. This works now.
The complete code has been revised in order to prevent crashes/errors.
One, two typographical errors in the GUI have been fixed.
The current version can be found (as always) in the Cloud Downloader’s main article by clicking the following link:
