    The issue could occur if there is change in power settings.

    Windows 10 Power Shutdown - less keystrokes?

    Is there any way to program settings to allow 2 strokes to shutdown?

    Windows 7 allowed 2 strokes (Start and then Shutdown as the default selection). In Windows 10 it's Start/Power/Shutdown.

    I Shutdown 2 or 3 times a day and it's just a nuisance to have to do an extra stroke and mouse over to select again.

    Can 'Power' be changed to have same selection as Windows 7 or at least show a Jump List for Power?

    TIA

    PC is Suffering Unexpected Shutdowns

    Most important detail to me would be whether these shutdowns are sudden, in which case it's likely a short or PSU issue (capacitor aging maybe?) or graceful windows style shutdowns, which suggests software interference.

    It could also be overheating components if it's a sudden shutdown. What are your thermals like?
