Hello,
My acer aspire 5315 keeps shutting down randomly, i've tried systems restore and this didn't help. I've also scanned the laptop for malware and infections but none were found.

Check out your temperatures, overheating might be the cause

and does it really happen randomly or does it happen when you're playing aa game or watching a movie?

It doesn't seem to be overheating, the laptop isn't hot and the fan is working. Randomly, with no pattern, it could turn off 5 minutes after booting up or an hour- in the middle of doing something or when its idle.
