It sounds like you're experiencing issues with Internet Explorer automatically closing and prompting you to restart and restore your session frequently. Here are some suggestions to help you troubleshoot and potentially resolve this issue:

1. Update Internet Explorer:​

• Ensure that your Internet Explorer is up to date. Outdated versions may have bugs that cause unexpected behavior.

  2. Clear Internet Explorer Cache:​

• Clear the cache and browsing history in Internet Explorer. Accumulated data can sometimes cause instability.

  3. Disable Add-ons:​

• Some add-ons can cause issues in Internet Explorer. Try disabling or removing any unnecessary add-ons to see if that resolves the problem.

  4. Reset Internet Explorer Settings:​

• Resetting Internet Explorer settings to default can sometimes fix unexpected behavior.
  • Open Internet Explorer, go to Settings, then Internet Options, and look for the Reset button.

    5. Check for Malware:​

  []Run a full antivirus scan on your system to check for any malware that might be causing the browser to act strangely.

  6. Use a Different Browser:​

  []Consider using an alternative browser like Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox to see if the issue persists in other browsers.

  7. Create a New User Profile:​

  []Sometimes, issues with Internet Explorer are user-specific. Create a new user profile on your system and see if the problem occurs there as well.

  8. Update Windows:​

  []Ensure that your Windows operating system is fully updated. Some updates may contain fixes for known issues. By following these steps, you can hopefully identify and resolve the issue with Internet Explorer automatically closing and prompting for a restart. If the issue persists, it might be beneficial to consider migrating to a more modern and supported browser like Microsoft Edge, which is the successor to Internet Explorer.
