Can you please reword that and/or attach a video or photo of the problem?

[marc_charbonneau (marc50)]

My graphical interface makes untimely restarts. More often when I use
codeblock and when I click on the launch bar of the applications and
when I switch a window from a screen to an other. When I start the
operating system, I must regularly move my screens, when I come to do it
a restart of my graphical interface does it for me (witch ubuntu dosen't
do before). These restarts are not done on a regular basis but after a
long period of time (25 minutes) and after a short one (5 seconds), I
cannot tels why it append.

many thanks

Marc Charbonneau.

Please open the 'Extensions' app and ensure you don't have any extensions enabled other than the three built-in extensions that ship with Ubuntu. If the problem still happens after that then please follow these instructions to check for crashes: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses#Missing_a_crash_report_or_having_a_.crash_attachment
