Answer 1

Answer:

If your computer is shutting down randomly due to software-related problems, scan the operating system for viruses and malware. Some viruses and other infections are designed to cause system crashes, including computer shutdowns. In any case, it is a good idea to scan your system from time-to-time. You can use Windows Defender (a built-in antivirus program), which protects computers against viruses, spyware, and other malicious software. Or, you can run another third-party antivirus package if you have one installed. To run a full system scan using Windows Defender, type "virus" in Search and click the "Virus & threat protection" result.

Explanation:

Malware rarely causes a computer to shut down. Instead, employees will notice slow performance as the malware runs in the background. Pop-ups, constantly changing Internet home pages and search engine hijacking are some of the most common symptoms. Unfamiliar programs, toolbars and icons are also common with malware.
