For some reason my new Surface is shutting off randomly. I check the setting and a few other things but it's still randomly turns off without warning. I'm losing some of my school work because of it. Is anyone else having this problem?

    Thank you for your answer.

    If the issue continues after this, what would you recommend to do? Return the device and swap for another one or wait for a fix that solves it?

    mine does that too.

    I believe it is supposed to do that it is called "adaptive hibernation".

    if you don't want it to hibernate go to settings > system > power and sleep and turn off the

    "save me power when my device knows I'm away.
