My PC quite often restarts randomly and I'm not sure what is causing it. I thought that maybe it could be that the windows store is crashing but I don't know how to see if the windows store is crashing. Is there a way to see if the it is crashing or would a message pop up saying that it has crashed?

If your system randomly restarts while under load or taxation then the issue can be limited to thermal issues or a lack of ample power from the PSU. If you system reboots at idle, then it's highly possible that the (OS)drive is faulty or that the PSU is failing.

Mind sharing your full system's specs like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:

Side note, are you on the latest BIOS revision for your motherboard?
