Are you seeing any Blue Screen error before shutdown?
Did you install any program before this problem start?

No Blue Screen before shutdown.Because it always shutdown when I'm not using it(for example : at night ) .
So it looks like it shut down because of an update (my view). But the log makes me confused.
II often find my computer turned off in the morning. It bothers me.

Update won't cause shutdown.
Have you checked your BIOS/UEFI setting to see if it configured for automatic shutdown?

Try boot your system into safe mode and see if the problem persist?

See this thread for more information.

I would add that although the thread mentioned the reason as power button, in that case it's more likely because of power settings on battery level.

But yes, the first thing to check is whether someone accidentally pressed the power button, usually the one on certain keyboard.

Hi @wei anson

Try to get the reason (ID) of the shutdown first.
Follow the hints in this article:
