Windows Explorer hanging after waking laptop from sleep.

For a few weeks now, I noticed that whenever I wake my laptop from sleep, it will freeze with the Windows 10 start screen displayed on screen. The taskbar and all desktop icons are totally unresponsive as well. Ctrl-Alt-Delete somehow works.

After some trial and error, I figured out that restarting Windows Explorer via Task Manager (activated via Ctrl-Alt-Delete) will resolve the issue.

May I know if there is probable cause and solution to this issue. Thanks for reading

Apparently the issue is caused by Trend Micro Internet Security. After removing it from my system, the issue has ceased. I will report back if the issue reoccurs again.
