System going to sleep and not waking up after latest update

Perhaps one of the ones discussed to in my [search results] link?
I used PiriForm's Speccy for a while a few years ago but it did not have any particularly commendable features.

If I needed to monitor temperature again I would want a utility that:
- recorded temperatures in a [human-readable] log file
- had a facility to set an alarm for a user-chosen temperature

I do not know what your results will be but I think your most useful lines of enquiry are both Events & temperature.

itm said:

I looked at the Nirsoft utility but it seems to offer a presentation layer on top of the existing Windows Event Logs, rather than offering new alerts (e.g. for temperature). Have I misunderstood it?

I mentioned it in response to your report about looking for Events that might shed light on the situation. It is simply a different form of presentation of the same data that Event viewer shows.

I find its presentation useful when I know when I am looking for but not what.
That's the situation you are in. You know when you restart but do not know what happened in the computer's last few conscious moments beforehand.

No. My link was just a search result.

I found the HTG article the most useful one
How to Tell If Your Computer Is Overheating and What to Do About It
but, like all the other articles I read, it assumes you have nothing better to do than stare at the temperature measurement all day.
- But what I learnt before was that the unusual events [failure to respond] never happen when you are paying attention to the temperature.
- The best I could do was think that it had been alright the last time I had noticed it - and that was not useful.
- Hence my desire to find one with a human-readable log & an alarm if I ever need to do I again.

Speccy only wrote an unintelligible log. That was in 2016.

itm,

I hope you also use those AV apps' removal tools.
To blow my own trumpet, see my post New Windows 10 Desktop PC

Best of luck,
