What's causing Google Chrome to constantly lock up?

My HP laptop with Windows 10 locks up every 5 minutes when using Google Chrome to browse on Yahoo News. The pop up "Wait" or "Kill" box is getting old fast! All updates are installed.

    Check "programs and features" in control panel to see if junk programs have filled up most of your available memory. Uninstall all unknown, unwanted programs. Reboot and browse. If you still have lockups, reset your chrome browser. Go to bottom of settings page to get into -advanced- and then go to the bottom of that page to reset..
