    Windows 10 keeps rescheduling updates

    Hello Kathryn,

    I apologize for the delay in response.

    The build version of the computer can be checked by following the steps provided below:

    • Press Windows + R keys, type winver and press
      Enter.
    • In the Window that appears, the Windows version and the build version will be displayed in the second line.

    If the Windows Version is 1607, then the system is updated to the Windows 10 Anniversary update. In this version of Windows, you can adjust Active Hours. This is the time period set for the system not to restart after the update is downloaded/installed.
    To enable Active hours, follow the steps provided below:

    • Navigate to Start>Settings>Update & Security.
    • In the left navigation pane, click on Windows Update.
    • In the right pane, click on Change Active Hours.
    • Set the start and end time for Active Hours and click on Save.

    Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

    Thank you.
