Stop letting Windows Update decide when to restart your PC
Source ↗ 👁 0 💬 0
I've lost count of the number of times my Windows PCs have randomly and unilaterally decided, "Alright, now's a great time to download and install this OS update." I sometimes wish I could find how my machine thinks per se, so I could interrupt it and school it to know better. Over many years and computers, this recklessness has cost me an hours-long video render running overnight, ruined family time on weekends because the HTPC put updates before my media, and articles I was writing.
