Every few weeks, my PC just restarts unexpectedly. It's not a common occurrence, maybe once every two or three weeks. I'm curious to know what might be causing this. Any ideas?

You might want to check for dump files as they can give you a hint on what’s going wrong. It could also be an issue with the power supply or even loose cables. I had a similar problem because of a faulty power button once.
It might be related to Windows updates. Sometimes they can cause unexpected restarts if the settings allow it. Have you checked your update history?
If it’s happening so infrequently, it could be due to static electricity affecting the power switch. Where are you located? If you're in a country like the U.S., do your outlets have proper grounding?
Yeah, I'm in the United States and my outlets are grounded.
