Photoshop CC 2019 freeze up at random intervals when minimized

This issue is somewhat related to this discussion , but it's also slightly different.

Whenever I start up Photoshop it works fine, but at random intervals after minimizing the program to do other tasks, it sort of hangs up.

I can hover my mouse over the taskbar icon like this: but if I click on the icon the program WILL not open op. Alt+tab'ing to it won't work either. Taskmanager tells me it's using 0% CPU constantly, but lots of RAM.

To get it working again I have to kill the process in taskmanager.

Hi

Try resetting Photoshop preferences to see if that helps

Thank you, I've tried this.  naturally I'll have to check if this actually works.
If it freeze up again I'll report back, if it "stays put" for a few days I'll make sure to mark your answer as correct
