MacBook

My MacBook keeps on restarting "because of a problem" all of the time, and when it does it is deleting all my assignments that are open. But when I go to check my recently opened in word the assignments don't show up there - so I lose it all. What should I do?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.6

Troubleshooting Persistent Mac Restarts:


Start Here: If your Mac Restarted Because of a Problem - Apple Support


No Success?...

Reinstall the macOS:

The volume is apparently corrupt.  So, reinstall the macOS. Nothing would be lost. It's just that misplaced items would be placed back to where they should be and corrupt system files would be replaced by clean files. Go Here: Reinstall macOS - Apple Support. Prior to the reinstallation, to prevent data loss, be sure to back up your Mac with Time Machine, so that you can have something to restore your Mac from, should anything happen after the reinstall.
