Does anyone ever get the message: "Your device ran into a problem and needs to restart...."

"Stop code Kmode exception_not_handled".

Happens about once a week when working in PS.

@Divine_reporter16B8 a BSOD is usually caused by buggy drivers and or failing hardware, can you post your Photoshop system info, in Photoshop go to Help > System Info, hit the copy button and paste the entire thing into this thread

About every two or three days I get a Windows 10 blue screen: "Ran into a problem and needs to resart",

"Stop code: KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED"..

This only happens when using PS, Beta also. 

I Checked all their ideas at: https://www.windows.com/stopcode, but no resolution.

Help please?

Thank you.
