Tablet with narcolepsy

Suddenly, switching back and forth between apps requires the reassembly of the page or pages that I was using a few seconds ago.

 

As a worst case scenario, I'll have a Word document open that requires a password and I will switch to my browser to view a page and the page this isn't instantly where it was a couple minutes ago, but it takes seven or eight seconds for the tablet to reload the page.

 

Then when I go back to the Word document it has closed and I have to reopen it and retype out the password. All of which is extremely annoying, as you could well imagine.

 

My system analysis app shows that of my 4 gigabytes of RAM, 55 to 60% is usually being utilized. so I'm not running out of RAM. 

 

I've got 5 gigabytes of free memory. 

 

Probably a coincidence but this occurred soon after downloading the Samsung file manager, and yet on this tablet you can't uninstall it, (and I know that that doesn't seem to make sense).

 

I am wondering whether it's a software or a hardware issue and how to fix it, perhaps with a factory reset. 

 

The OS is current with recent update offerings. 

 

Any advice would be appreciated.
