Acer Aspire E15-522
Bought Christmas of 2017
Have this laptop when i did the serial number search - https://www.acer.com/ac/en/CA/content/support-product/5994?b=1&pn=NX.MWHAA.007&sn=62103048676
Already Did the Battery Reset and changing back F2 to Default Values
Sometimes when I leave my laptop on at night and wake up in the morning it will be still on where I left it
Other Days when I leave my laptop on at night and wake up in the morning it will be on the sign on screen like it restarted on it's own
This doesn't happen every night just random nights and I never know when until I wake up and find my laptop like it was or at the sign on screen
Please Help Me with this issue

Open ControlPanel. Search 'power plan'. Click 'edit power plan' in left pane. Change all settings on battery and plugged in to 'never'. Jack E/NJ

It has always been set to never since I have had this laptop.JackE said:Open ControlPanel. Search 'power plan'. Click 'edit power plan' in left pane. Change all settings on battery and plugged in to 'never'. Jack E/NJ
I always make sure to change that setting first before I do anything as well after reinstalling windows or something like that.

Press F3 to turn wifi off so Windows updates won't try to install and restart during the night. Jack E/NJ

I have it hard wired connected and it's been hard wired connected for over 2 years.
And I have that turned off under additional options under Windows Updates.

The what connector??
Under Windows Update - Advanced Options - Restart this device as soon as possible when a reset is required to install an update.
That above I have turned off0 -
>>>The what connector?? >>>If you have it hard wired to the router, then the wire from the router has an RJ45 ethernet plug on the end that plugs into the system's RJ45 ethernet connector. Jack E/NJ

Yup. Just try pulling one plug out from either end of the yellow ethernet wire when you're done for the day to see if it still re-boots overnight. Jack E/NJ

Jack E/NJI contacted windows and they got me to download https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/software-download/windows10 and to do an Upgrade kind like re-installing windows but not losing any of my programs, settings or anything like that.It took about 1 hour or so but since then I have had no issues what so ever.0

That may or may not be related to the original issue of it re-starting when the machine is just sitting there idling overnight. Do you have any non-Microsoft virus scanners like AVG, McAfee, Norton, MalwareBytes, etc running in the background? Jack E/NJ

Nope I only open Melwarebytes when I do a scan on it weekly
Then Quit Melwarebytes and make sure it's not running in the background.

I was awake and playing a game at 1:30am my laptop froze screen went black then restarted no noise, warning or anything.
I also checked the side where air comes out the laptop to see if it was warm or hot and it was not.
The laptop completely froze and restarted on it's on while playing a game and has done it before with other games in the past as well with watching Netflix.

Please, yes, I fully understood that you were awake and playing a game at 1:30am. That's why I said that it may or may not be related to the original issue of it re-starting when the machine is just sitting there idling overnight. So please pull the yellow plug if you're going to let the machine idle overnight to see if it re-starts. Jack E/NJ

I can't really unplug the yellow plug while playing a game to resolve this issue.
This is a screenshot of core temp running right now with the game
63 highest for or CPU Temp where the 40 C is
81 highest of Memory Usage
50 highest of Processer Load

>>>when I leave my laptop on at night and wake up in the morning it will be on the sign on screen like it restarted on it's own>>>>>>I'm looking to resolve this problem that I'm having where it's doing it while playing games or watching Netflix.>>>Please look at your first post again. Restarting while game playing & restarting while sitting idle overnight can be due to two completely different issues. If the latter, then pull the plug to see what happens for a few mornings. If the former, then to either rule in or rule out a hardware issue, I suggest that you back up your system and do a full erase everything factory reset as shown in the video below. If the issue persists after a factory reset, then it is most likely a hardware related issue. Jack E/NJ
