I don't get this type of freeze/crash, but I do get regular crashes (latest version of Frame using the (hated) subscription model).
My system is significantly better than what Adobe requires, but if I'm going to have a book open, then I restart 3-4 times a day if Frame is in heavy rotation (I still work with MS Word as well). I've found that restarting at least once during the day and then when I finish my day is a great precaution for Creative Cloud programs as well-to the point where I almost always restart at lunch time and at the end of the day. My experience is that the more complex the program, the bigger the memory leaks appear to be (regardless of who wrote the software).

The Windows memory leak problem has been longstanding. We used to have to restart FrameMaker at least once a day (and reboot once a day, too) while the SUN workstations would run without rebooting for months. I don't think it trusting Windows beyond a day is sensible. Shut down at night and start fresh in the morning; it's Windows!

I have to kill the process with the Task Manager, get rid of *.lck files, get rid of the *auto files (or rename them, saving the originals just in case into another directory), restart the whole thing, check manually that the chapters are in the right state - all tedious for a 40-chapter book. It's really bizarre that after all these years, in a product with the Adobe label, there are still such crashes. Does anyone know any way to present them from happening? I guess exiting after a few days of use and restarting is prudent (if unpleasant in 2022), is there a better way?
