One way to get info about the cause would be to look at the cryptic system event log. To get there go to Control Panel -> Administrative tools -> Event viewer. Then look through the Windows logs -> System for events flagged ERROR.

SFC/DISM very rarely fix IRQ errors

1. Can you follow option one on the following link - here - and then do this step below: Small memory dumps - Have Windows Create a Small Memory Dump (Minidump) on BSOD

that creates a file in c windows/minidump after the next BSOD
copy that file to documents
upload the copy from documents to a file sharing web site, and share the link here and I will get someone to convert file into a format I can read

2. memtest isn't a bad idea, as it can be ram. Try running memtesst86 on each of your ram sticks, one stick at a time, up to 8 passes. Only error count you want is 0, any higher could be cause of the BSOD. Remove/replace ram sticks with errors.

3. what motherboard do you have? (if its a brand name PC, what make/model since i doubt you know motherboard on them?) Windows isn't always best place to confirm you have latest drivers, as in device manager only looks at drivers that MS have, hardware makers may not have given them newer versions.

1 should give us more clues as to cause.

Hi, I ran the dump file through the debugger and got the following information: https://pastebin.com/yaqcZSUh

File information:040819-9640-01.dmp (Apr 8 2019 - 16:35:56)
Bugcheck:PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (50)
Probably caused by:ntkrnlmp.exe (Process: qmelt.exe)
Uptime:0 Day(s), 0 Hour(s), 22 Min(s), and 44 Sec(s)

qmelt.exe is sometimes associated with malware/viruses. Do a virus scan with the free version of Malwarebytes. https://www.malwarebytes.com/mwb-download/ The latest version of Malwarebytes is known to have many false positives, so just because it finds something that doesn't necessarily mean you are infected.

The one thing that pops out to me in your screen shot is the WHEA error. This is often a hardware error.

This information can be used by others to help you. I can't help you with this. Someone else will post with more information. Please wait for additional answers. Good luck.

event viewer: even on a system with no problems, you will get warnings and errors. ONly ones you need to be worried about are critical and the only one on that screen was caused by the PC restarting unexpectedly which doesn't help us.

Details of the WHEA logger event 19 might help us.

BugCheck 50, {ffffffffffffff8f, 2, fffff802050ec2f5, 2}
Could not read faulting driver name

ntkrnlmp = Part of windows kernel

try updating Wireless lan drivers, they are from 2016
oldest driver part of Asus AI Suite but unlikely to be a newer version. and the errors it is normally tied too aren't this BSOD.

qmelt is part of Shotcut

Have you overclocked your system? These BSODs are common indicators of instability - unstable overclock.

alas, its why I said relatively safely. I wish a utility built into windows to test drivers wouldn't break windows at same time.

everytime this happens I feel less inclined to suggest it again

yeah restore point failed too xD

Im now resetting while keeping personal files see if that works xD
