Freeze on expand tool when scripting

I am having an issue when I script, sometimes photoshop freezes on the expand tool and it will not carry on till I click on photoshop again, this happens at randomly, sometimes when I run the script it will freeze and at other times I run the script it will not freeze.

 

I am using version 22.2 as all the other version appear to crash, I have used this version since it came out and it has been stable and worked great with this script, now all of a sudden it freezes.

 

The only thing I can think of, is that when I lose internet for a split second it refreshes file explorer thus clearing photoshop memorys?

 

I am speculating as I am not sure of this issue as it is very random and has only been prominent the past few months.

 

PC Specs:

Windows

AMD Ryzen 7 (Installed within the past year)

32gb RAM (Installed within the past year)

No graphics card (Has been this way for years no graphics card, so I don't think this is the issue)

NVME storage

 

Help be appeciated as I do not fancy babysitting photoshop

First of all, you do have a video card. Please post your system information- Help->System Info.

Second, please post both the problem script and a better explanation of what you are doing. As it is, your post makes no sense.

Sorry add a bit of info.

I use javascript/.JSX to script and have my script now clear cache every 50 images as I thought it was a memory leak but its not.

I run 1-5k at a time, sometimes gets through all 5k images but when it freezes it freezes between 600-1200 image mark, then click on PS and it runs the rest all fine.
