2 days ago i upgraded my windows 10 to build 1903 , since then ,

randomly and during any activity (gaming , watching a video ..etc) , 

screen with the word "locking" in the middle appears for half a second and my laptop goes into sleep mode 

and then i have to turn it on again 

this never happened before the update , i tried to reset and fresh start but, nothing worked , and now i can't get back to previous build 

what do i do ? 

HELP , PLEASE

SOLUTION 

Hey guys

So, I solved the issue (for me, at least) a long time ago but forgot to report back. My apologies

Basically,

Settings -> power and sleep -> additional power settings -> change advanced power settings -> battery

Then, change critical battery action and low battery action to do nothing both on battery and plugged in

I don't know if others already solved the problem In a different way, but i Hope that helps

Have a good day

    I had the same problem Nov. 25 2019. I unplugged the power and phone plug to my wifi for 10 minutes and plugged both back in. No problem. Then I went to updates under settings and lo and behold a new update that was not automatically updated. Updated that. I also had a spyware on automatic timed scanning scheduled to shut down the computer afterwards. Stopped that. I think the unplugging wifi and uploading new microsoft update fixed the problem. Spyware schedule had nothing to do with it. So stop with all the nonsense of jumping through so many hoops people put on here. 😀
