Often times it'll just force hibernate and randomly my gaming mouse's dongle will disconnect sometimes. Other times the laptop doesn't force hibernate and it just keeps depleting until it dies, and then I have to recharge and power back my laptop. And then we get instances like today where the laptop refuses to restart properly and I get a black screen after force shutdown and booting it back up, along with another black screen once I make it past log-in. Yes I've tried to restart File Explorer and waiting for the UI to hopefully come back, but it doesn't unless I reboot again and again.

Sure, it's sort of my fault since I've used this laptop for almost 4 years now, and I should be recharging it much earlier before this shit happens; what isn't my fault is what happens after if I forget or if Windows fails to force hibernate itself. I often have to restart multiple times to make the black screen and other booting/restarting issues go away, and this has happened with the default HDD and the new SSD that both served as booting drives. I've reinstalled Windows 10 once due to me smashing the HDD (I always had anger issues with tech, especially those that are physically very fragile), and I might have to reinstall Windows 10 again.

I suspect it's got something to do with either Windows 10 and/or the motherboard being mediocre because Acer loves to cut corners to offer higher specs at a lower price (I believe Dell and HP do the same). I'm considering to always have my laptop plugged in at all times now, unless I absolutely need it to be used away from an outlet, since even when I set everything and use my laptop as efficiently as possible, the battery life is only 4 hours max. Back then my laptop used to easily last 6-8 hours but I'd say since the spring I don't know wtf happened that caused the battery to always give me less than 5 hours.
