Every few weeks your PC automatically downloads important system updates
in the background. You’re then prompted to install them by restarting
your PC. You can choose to delay the restart by selecting a time (from
‘10 minutes’ to ‘4 hours’) from the dropdown menu. After that time
elapses, your PC will automatically reboot.
If you’re working on something important and need to continue using your
PC beyond four hours, then there’s an easy way to bypass this automatic
reboot using the Command Prompt. You first need to open it as an
Administrator. To do that, press the Windows key, type cmd, press
Ctrl+Shift+Enter, then Yes (to confirm you want to open the Command
Prompt as Admin). Now type the following command net stop “windows
update”, into the Command Prompt (see screenshot below), then press
Enter.
