The note opens and the workflow continues as normal.
Actual result
You cannot open any other note(It may come a little bit later). You can close obsidian. You cannot select anything on the desktop. The system will show you “Microsoft Windows is not responding” window. If you shut down the process, it will reload Windows and after that you can repeat the steps and have the same result
I tried to see and it looks like there’s some problem just with obsidian and it’s perfomance. Last time it freezed while indexing my vault(it sometimes redoes it because of the google sync) and it also freezed windows. The GTD file had not been previously opened. Obsidian was taking ~50% of CPU power and there was 86% total CPU max(everything else was below 50%) and still everything got freezed. I also noticed that when I try to open another file after freeze, it shows empty tab and the file name shows No file.
P.S. The tab says «Microsoft WIndows is not responding. It may respond if you wait»
Hmm wait, so it has nothing to do with this specific document, something is consuming a lot of CPU there. When you close down Obsidian, is it still running by task manager? If you kill the app via task manager and restart, does the problem go away?
I have the same problem in my laptop. When I open a file (just this file) this freeze my laptop and can’t do anything, keyboard blocks and doesn’t works anymore the computer works again if you force the restart. Did u found a solution?
I can’t know. I can’t open the task manager. The task bar shows that obsidian is running. Though the task bar is also freezed. But it looks like it is not running.
Sorry, I’ve made a mistake. I can open task manager before opening the files.
If I open Важная инфа к экзамену по физике.md, the CPU goes down to 1-2% And as soon as I close obsidian, the process is also gone. Everything else is freezed.
If I open GTD.md, it is quite the same.
The other files mentioned in this thread doesn’t freeze my laptop.
I have the same issue with two different files. Both have “a lot” of images.
If I open these images one by one to ensure that they are loaded (I’m using Google drive share point) it doesn’t crash windows.
If all the people who has this error is with a file with a lot of images maybe the problem could be that Obsidian doesn’t know what to do to load the image.
I think you have a different issue and your problem is with Google drive. Move you vault out of Google drive and see if it still happens.
Also you need to make sure that the files sorted on Google drive are actually also store locally and not downloaded on demand.
