New Surface Pro 7 shutting down randomly

Same issue on my new surface laptop 3

1. Version 1909 OS build 18363.657 (windows 10)
2. The issue started a week ago. Tried a lot of stuff.
3. No. 
4. Only type cover
5. Troubleshooting power 
6. It doesn't happen when its on charging. Last week when it started, I was doing some work when it suddenly shut down. But after making some changes, it only happens when I leave my laptop idle (basically not moving the cursor) for 2-3mins (and only when its not on charging). Also, I had this problem previously, that when I left my laptop idle for 5 mins, it used to freeze. It wouldn't work unless I did force shut down and then restarted my device. And this problem too didn't happen while on charging (this one is solved now)
7. I've tried force shutdown.
8. I cant find my exact match for downloading drivers and firmware. But I did that earlier when I had other issues.
9. I ran system file checker.

Still, the problem has not been resolved. Also, my cursor sometimes freezes on the screen (not sometimes, a lot of times). It's very annoying. 

Oh, and I bought it in Jan only!!!!!!!

Hi, ishikaagrawal!

Thanks for reaching Microsoft Community. We are sorry to learn you have issues with your Surface Pro 7 shutting down randomly. Thanks for taking the time to let us know about this. We need to gather information regarding this.

• What is your Windows version and OS Build? Press Windows and type winver to obtain this.
• When did the issue start?
• Any changes made on the device?
• Are there accessories connected to your device (Type Cover, SD card, Surface Dock, charger, etc.)?
• Troubleshooting steps aside from the Surface Diagnostic Toolkit you mentioned.
• Does this happen on any activity on the device? Please enumerate them.
• Does it happen with and without Internet connection?

1. Press and hold the power button until the screen turns off (about 10 seconds), then release the power button.

For the meantime, please follow the steps below.

1: Check for Windows Update

                               Go to Download driver and firmware for Surface, choose Surface Pro 7 then click Download on the next page.

                               Choose the .msi file that matches your current OS Build and click Next.

                               After downloading, run and install the .msi then Restart.

3: Run System File Checker

Hello, ishikaagrawal.

Thanks for performing the steps and I am truly sorry it didn't work. It is greatly appreciated that you noticed when the issue is not happening. I will add this information to raise to our team and we will update you as soon as we get word regarding this.

Thanks for your time!

Hello, ishikaagrawal.

We're terribly sorry for the delayed response. Thanks for answering all of my questions and informing me the steps you have tried in the attempts to troubleshoot the issue. May we know if you did a reset on the device via USB Recovery?

          This option reimages the entire device, including the partition on the hard drive.

          It is the most complete form of reset.

          You will need to back up your personal data.

          You will need to reinstall desktop apps. You will need to run updates after completion.

          If the issue occurs after a reset, then the root cause is very likely hardware related.

          You will need to download and set up a recovery image on a USB drive. Open USB recovery link to get started. The information on what size and type of drive is provided at the destination page.

If you did, let me know so I will add this to our documentation as this thread and other threads with the random shutdown issue have been raised to our internal team. Also, I see you responded to this thread, that was included in our report as well. We still await for their response regarding this. Your patience is greatly appreciated!
