Windows 10: "Shut Down Windows" screen pops up randomly/frequently

The "Shut Down Windows" screen has started showing up randomly/frequently requiring me to X out before the program will continue. How do I get to stop?

Laptop randomly shuts down after latest Windows 10 update

Since the latest update of Windows 10 my computer decides to randomly shut down after every couple of minutes. First the screen goes black, then the sounds stops and after quite a while the power also goes down.

Obviously I though of cleaning the fan with a big vacuum, as suggested on My Windows 10 Computer Randomly Shuts Down . However, after doing this, the shutting down goes even quicker. I cannot even properly log-on before the shutdown takes place.

What should be my next step?

Ps. The computer is quited aged (roughly 3 - 4 years). The battery is dead enough such that I always need to have it plugged in an outlet. It might just be "done for" but I'm hoping to revive it for just a little bit more.

 

Laptop shuts off randomly, not sure why

I won't even be touching the screen when it turns off, I just hear an audible click and then silence from the direction of the laptop. I've tried the screen thing and there's nothing caused by that.
I use it frequently on battery at school and it never shuts down at school (I tend to use it on a desk). It seems to be something to do with when I use it on my lap but I'd like to know how them fitting a new motherboard has caused this problem, my dad suggested they fitted a watchdog to the motherboard to shut down at a certain temperature if this is the case, is there any way to disable it?
