    computer randomly restarts or shutdowns


    So every now and then I open my computer and find out that it was shut down. At first, I thought it was a windows update, but I don't know anymore. the error I see in the event viewer system log is 6008 "The previous system shutdown at 1:59:50 on ‎20/‎09/‎2020 was unexpected.", and checking the other logs for events at the same time shows different events for every shutdown that happened, so I haven't been able to see anything in common with all these shutdowns.


    This problem is getting very frustrating, I really could use some help figuring this out.

    :)

    The computer shutdown itself restart?

    Hi Tín,

    A computer can shutdown based on the instructions given to its power settings. If you are using a laptop, there’s an option that when you are just closing a lid, it can shutdown your computer.
    To ensure that we can provide the appropriate resolution to your concern, we’d like to ask you a few questions:

    • What were the recent changes made on your computer before you experienced this issue?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
    • What activity are you performing that may trigger to shutdown your computer?
    • Can you provide us a screenshot of your power settings?
    • Are you using a laptop or desktop computer?

    We’re looking forward to your response.

    computer will not shutdown or restart.

    Try clearing page file at shutdown:
    CAUTION: This dramatically slows down shutdown times but hopefully it solves your problem.
