The Thing About You'll Problem Posters, Once Your Problem Is Successfully Solved There Is No Sign Of You'll Or Any Means Of Gratitude.....However:

There are several reasons to why you are getting these errors, If this has started recently it could be attributed to a newly installed driver or application.

Remove the newly installed application or driver, There can also be hardware issues but it is not common. I suggest you boot into safe mode and try [right clicking] again to see if the error pops up. If it doesn't then you will easily be able to find the culprit which is causing the freeze.

I cannot guarantee this will help you but another person said it fixed his problem.
