I keep running into the same issue every time I want to run Linux on my laptop. It shuts down all of a sudden in the middle of a session without any warning, and I'm not even able to turn it back on for half a minute or so. I tried different distros like Ubuntu, Mint, eOS, Fedora but it doesn't make any difference. I have no such issues with Windows. Any idea how to resolve it? Or is it possible at all? Thanks a lot.

Most probably your laptop is shutting down unexpectedly because of heat issues. Try this answer in this sense or/and you can buy an external cooler fan and put under your laptop.
