Windows 10: Check Out My Feedback in the Windows 10 Hub- Computer Not Restarting Outside of Active Hours

Guys,


Please check out my feedback in the Windows 10 Hub. "Computer Not Restarting Outside of Active Hours."The issue however happens only about every 2-3 months. Other months are fine with no problems, and this has been an on/off occurrence since build 1809. I am now on build 1909. No other problems with the computer or Windows 10 at all. It is only the restart tick that is sometimes being missed after Active Hours have ended. See my Feedback Hub thread for details, and please comment and upvote if this situation applies to you.

Computer Not Restarting Outside of Active Hours (Build 1909)

Guys,

Ever since build 1803, I have had intermittent issues with my computer not restarting once Active Hours have ended. My Active Hours are set from 7AM to 1 AM, and around Patch Tuesday, or a day or so later, I correctly get a notice in Action Center that my
PC needs to restart outside of Active Hours.

The thing is though, I have inactivity open from 1AM to 6:59 AM, and I will wake up the next day, and my computer has not performed the restart even though no one was using it during the night. ACTION CENTER MAY REPEAT THE PROCESS OF THE RESTART NOTIFICATION
FOR 3-4 DAYS BEFORE THE RESTART HAPPENS. Other times, the restart outside of Active Hours happens as it should, so it is an intermittent issue.

windows 10 is NOT restarting after a windows update even if is outside of active hours.

I start windows updates on my system and leave for dinner, expecting the updates to be finished and the system re-booted when i return.

when i return at 7:30 pm (outside of active hours) i find the update status screen with a status of "awaiting restart"

"your device is scheduled to restart outside of active hours. (Active hours are 8:00 am to 5:00 pm)"

If i click on "restart now" everything completes normally.

I have a screen print showing this information along with the system clock showing that the current time is outside of active hours (is it possible to post that screen print here?)

This is NOT a new problem and actually happens on more than one PC, but i am getting tired of going though the extra steps and waiting for completion of this process that should have already finished while i was away from my PC.

Why won't my system reboot outside of active hours after updates are complete?

Windows 10 pro

version 1709

os build 16299.334

Active hours are 8am to 5pm.
