Life Digital Zed Air Pro Windows 10 [Version 10.0.19042.867] PC starts, stops and restarts randomly

The  Core Isolation feature on my Zed Air Pro turns off randomly and the machine randomly stops, starts and reboots sometimes late at night, to fix which the battery can be manually disconnected.

Some keys simply don't respond on my Windows 10 20H2 Zed Air Pro win ver [Version 10.0.19042.867] PC.

The drivers for the Zed Air Pro on Product support | Drivers and Firmwares | LIFE Digital redirect to MediaFire Links which sometimes contain dead ends, and a Google Search for "Zed Air pro drivers  results in sites like i-Life ZED AIR PRO drivers | Download for Windows 7, XP, 10, 8, and 8.1 (drp.su) which are known to contain Trojans.

My queries to Life Digital, the Dubai based manufacturer as to why my Keyboard was not working has resulted in no replies.

    Thank you for your reply and help endeavor, Aditya Roy.

    I followed all steps except Step 1.

    Step 1: Update drivers and check duplicate.

    1. Will Attempt this shortly, after plugging in an external USB modem as the inbuilt wi fi chip doesnt work

    Step 2: Disable Fast Startup

    1. Have disabled Fast Start up/

    Step 3: Modify Power Settings

    1. Press Windows + R key to open Run command.
    2. Type control panel and click OK.
    3. Now change the category to Small icons for View by.
    4. Select**Power options,**click on **“Change Plan Settings”**next to your current power plan
    5. Click on “Change advanced power settings”.
    6. Expand the Hard disk section and click Turn off the hard disk. This Hard Disk option doesnt show up in the Advanced power Settings.

    Step 4: Clean boot

    Try booting your PC in clean boot. Refer to the article on How to perform a clean boot in Windows

    Step 4 on hiding all non MS services, there are no known other services in the oncfig window.

    Hoping this problem can be rectified.

    Also note that the life Digital Zed Air Pro PC comes with Windows 10 although the American Megatrends BIOS UEFI has options to run on Windows 8.1 and Android.

    Thank you!
