Nintendo Switch Freezing error
Well, screen freeze is a pretty common issue and no one needs to worry about it. It has some common fixes and there is no need to send it for repair. Below are some of the most common fixes.
- If your whole system has seized to work then just try to hard reset it. Hold down the power button for like 12 seconds. This will compel your console to power down. Now, restart your console to check if everything works fine or not. A reboot may take some time so there is no need to panic. A large portion of the error is fixed by this trick.
- Try connecting your Switch to your tv using the dock. Connecting with your TV will eventually make the switch console work again. This is a momentary solution and may not work with Nintendo lite version.
