We are not seeing any issue for ES, but you do have the following line in your log:
CQG WebAPI | Market data subscription for F.US.APH22 was unsuccessful. Text: Real-time data subscription for instrument F.US.AP (corresponding to ID = 1) is not enabled

Refer to the following regarding this error:

That is regarding the Back-Adjustment for the 3 minute chart. You would want to open a Daily Historical chart for F.US.MESH22 and also make it a Back-Adjusted Chart and download data at least as far back as that 3 minute chart goes back.

If you have issues with your computer freezing, that is a system level issue we cannot help with.

Regarding the errors you are seeing in the log for the MES continuous contract, that contract did not trade back in 2017! Reduce the amount of days in the chart:
