So i have been using a Ryzen 5 2600 like 2 years ago and I just realized that my CPU temp peaks up to 85°C and in some cases it shutdowns my PC. I changed my case to another one with 4 fans, changed the thermal paste and cleaned the stock cooler, but it still happens. Can someone help me?

My specs:

Case: Kolink Observatory Lite Mesh
Motherboard: B450 TOMAHAKW MSI
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600
RAM: 2x8GB Geil Orion DDR4 3200 MHz (Dual Channel)
GPU: XFX RX 5500 XT
Power Supply: Redragon 600W 80Plus Bronze
Cooling: 4 case fans, 1 stock cooler and 1 power supply fan

85C shouldn't shut your PC down. TJmax is 95c for 2600's but even long excursions above that won't shut it down. At most it will cause it to go into protective throttling which is quite noticeable so you'd know it. It takes temps above 110C or maybe 115C to bring on immediate shutdown.

But then, you're also using HWMonitor which is notoriously inaccurate for Ryzen systems. Get HWInfo64 and track temperature on a graph. Look at CPU(Tctl/Tdie) and CPU(Tdie average). The average temps is the true(-er) thermal state, the Tctl/Tdie is instantaneous temps as the CPU boosts.

All that...
Do you live in a hot climate and a room with no A/C? I have a Ryzen 3 2200G running a stock cooler a while back and it really gets hot around 72-76C under load and its even at night(28C ambient). Fixed it by getting an aftermarket cooler (Deepcool Gammax 300) and it maxed out at 54C. I suggest getting an aftermarket tower cooler for it.

All that aside, though, stock cooling is just adequate for a 2600. You might consider upgrading your cooling, especially if you live in a hot climate.

Yeah I know, I mean the last temp I see was 85°C, but if I open another game or I open too much programs my PC shutdown freezing my PC. I live in Argentina, but now is winter here and there is like 7°C average climate. Do u think i should upgrade the stock cooler?

I think stock cooler is just adequate and an upgrade is often helpful. 7c is pretty cold, i really hope that's outdoors, not in your room. It's the room temp that matters.

But if it's crashing when you open too many programs it sounds like a Windows problem. From Command prompt with admin rights run SFC /scannow to find and fix windows system file corruption. If that doesn't help you might need to do a clean install, or repair install at the least.
