It sometimes works well and sometimes it does not. I am almost having paranoia that somebody manipulates my system and causes my laptop to crash occasionally.

In 2013 I had a problem with my computer. Somebody caused me to go to some sz site and after that my keyboard stopped working. This was when I had my old laptop and I had to install HP’s BIOS again. I think somebody caused it to happen, or at least that is my paranoia.
I’ve had problems like that. Like right now my windows calculator app takes about a minute to open and start working. When I get several things like this starting to happen I reinstall windows and my problems go away (Unless it is a hardware problem)
Could be a number of things. Windows may have become corrupt or your laptop could be overheating. Do you get the blue screen of death, if so check the Windows Event Viewer to see why it is crashing. If it just shuts off that could be a power problem.
Do you run checks on it and perform upkeep weekly? Or even monthly?
You could have startup to minimum programs starting. Clean the cache weekly. Perform a defrag and scandisk monthly at least on slow computers.
There’s tutorials online for all of this.

I’m having computer issues at the moment too. Often it reboots for no apparent reason. Some days it does it a lot. Other days its fine.
I really doubt anyone is spying on you or messing with you.
Have a go at cleaning the dust out of it. That can make a lot of difference to a computer’s performance.
Also I use Malwarebytes for free malware scans.

I have a newer laptop…when I was writing about covid it randomly opened up google maps and showed me the stats for how many cases were in the area. On one hand it seemed random, on the other I am clicky with the screen and I have a lot of links/chrome and google ads track everything I write online thats how ads and cookies work they track what you click or type in the search engine…
.most computers are fairly secure however it takes skill to full-proof it from hackers.
As for random freezes like the blue screen, that is usually related to the bios/hardware not someone messing with it on purpose. I bought a new HP and I did have that issue with the CD rom drive. Someone told me to download HP assist…that older laptops can have those issues.
also blue screen is a sign you need to defragment your hard drive I think…or wipe your drive and start over but not easy for the layperson…you could take it to a hardware repair shop…because thats a sign that the hard drive is corrupted, could even be a computer virus.
I need to reboot my brain.

When I was off meds and psychotic I thought ISIS hacked my pc and phone, they were spying on me and sending me messages through signs.
all my slow laptop problems were fixed by upgrading the hard drive to an ssd, windows 10 is not very hdd friendly it is basically unusable on hdd’s
No, I don’t think anybody is controlling your computer. Just trying to help.
Now my system has worked well for two days without any problems. I think that my paranoia was unnecessary. Why would anybody want to spy on me? No reason.
