PC shuts down automatically every 60 minutes - how to find what triggers it?


Recommended Posts

Hello,
My Windows 11 PC automatically shuts down about one hour after startup, without any warning or visible reason.

Here is what I’ve discovered so far:
- In Event Viewer, there’s always an event “6008 — The previous system shutdown was unexpected.”
- I also found two Windows services named `Babaika` and `BabaikaService`, which seem to belong to like a “Time Control” program.
- I’ve tried modifying or deleting the `limit.txt` file, creating scripts with `shutdown -a`, and other workarounds, but the issue persists.
- I cannot use Safe Mode or WinRE because the keyboard and mouse don’t work there, which limits my diagnostic options.


1. How can I find out exactly which program or service is initiating the shutdown? Are there specific steps (via Event Viewer, PowerShell Get-WinEvent, registry, etc.)?
2. If this is a service running under the SYSTEM account, is there a way to disable or remove it without admin rights? Any safe methods?
3. Which Event IDs or logs should I look for to track down the exact shutdown source?

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
