    Hi

    It wont be for no reason as everything has a reason, its just tracking what that reason it and in most cases it could be heat, a high temp on CPU GPU and Motherboard can all cause this, tell us what the temps and this app is good, use PC for 1hr or so with normal usage to get a good picture of the max temp.

    Is this a laptop or desktop? do make sure all fans are working and that all air vents and inside fans are free from dust.

    Also software could cause this, so what applications have you installed before this started to happen?

    What security applications do you have installed, do name all please?

    What types of tasks are you doing when the PC restarts?

    If you boot into safe mode does the PC reboot in the same timescale as it has been doing?
