  1. active hours for windows update can't include midnight


    Hi,

    I work nights, so I wanted to set my computer's non-active hours to while I was asleep. eg 6am to 1pm.

    But I can only set active hours eg 1pm to 6am, which it will not accept because it seems it can't handle midnight and/or stopping before starting.

    So what are my options?

    Thanks in advance

    :)

  2. Disable Active hours?

    Hello Daniel,

    If you wish to add more hours or to have an option to turn off the Active Hours, then the feature is currently unavailable on Windows phone. It is best if you can send a suggestion to make the features available using the
    Feedback Hub app. To send a suggestion on your Windows phone, you can follow the steps provided below:

    • Go to All Apps, search for the Feedback
      Hub app.
    • Open the menu icon at the top left side.
    • Select Feedback, then at the top right side, tap the
      add
      button (+).
    • Select Suggestionand fill up the box with the details needed.
    • Select the right category and then Submit.

    If you have any questions, feel free to ask the community.

    Hi

    In an upcoming update active hours will be between 1 and 18. Whether you can set to pass midnight I don't know.

    Windows 10 Anniversary Update Active Hours Questions?

    I use my computer a lot - from the crack of dawn until midnight and beyond. So I want to set my Active Hours from 6am to midnight. But when I try it says "Active hours can be set between 1 and 12 hours"

    Wrong - I am active for at least 18 hours most days - surely Microsoft can cope with the other 6 and leave me alone whilst I am Active to my standards not theirs !!!!
