1. Computer Overheating Computers need to be cooled down and maintain certain temperatures to run optimally.
2. Faulty Hardware Failing hardware components could make your PC shut down spontaneously.
3. Drivers Outdated or faulty drivers are another cause of random PC shutdowns.
4. Viruses and Malware
5. Operating System Issues
Hope this helps.
