Anybody else have an HP laptop that keeps shutting off?

I've had it two years. No problems until now. Keeps shutting off without warning.

the most likely cause like a few have suggested is overheating. You need to blow it out with compressed air and I would also suggest a chill pad that draws the heat out of a laptop

Almost always a heat problem, you may have a broken fan. Take it in.

Is it overheating? A can of compressed air on the vents might help

@iamnikki When CPU heats up, PC shuts down. CPU takes bit of time to heat up, so yeah, it can be a heating issue.

@SW-User warranty expired as they always do when you need it

@iamnikki still you can get checked. If you are out of warranty just do some expense on your laptop if required.
