MacOS Catalina 10.15.4 Crashes

My MacBook started crashing randomly after the last update. The screensaver and power saving is off, and the reboots happen if applications are open, or they are closed and it is just sitting idle.

I have 2 Mac's both 2015's. The only way I found to solve the crash is to install Catalina via a bootable USB. Once I restored from Time Machine the crashes came back. One of them doesn't have Norton, the other does, but both would crash out of the blue. It was pain, but I copied all my files off, installed Catalina from scratch, reinstalled my apps, copied my documents back over and no crashes, not even the Norton installed one crashes. I have a feeling the upgrade has issues, not sure if they are security related, or files not updating, but hopefully they will fix it on the next round.

No -- but if it is new, then perform Send-In Service:


Right now, with the Coronavirus Pandemic going around, mail-in service is available. You have a one-year limited-warranty. So, contact Apple Support. You will be shipped a box; you'd ship the Mac in via box; Apple will fix what need be; and Apple will send it back to you. If a faulty device, service will be free of charge.
