  1. Comp restarts after update even though option is set to not do this


    This is extremely frustrating. I'm on win 10 pro and have the "notify to schedule restart" option checked in windows update. Yet, today and in the past after I start updates and leave my computer for a bit, I will sometimes find it magically restarted when I come back. No warning or anything. This time I happen to be uploading a very large file to the internet which I now have to restart.




    Anybody else eperiencing this. Any way to fix?

    :)

    Maps goes online even though it's set not to

    In addition to unchecking AGPS in positioning methods, you have to go to Positioning Server -> Positioning Server Use and set that to "Disabled" (this is where you normally specify what AGPS server to use). Otherwise it will, for some strange reason, still
    try to use the AGPS server.



    See there's this thing called "software testing" that Nokia doesn't really believe in.

  3. Maps goes online even though it's set not to

    I noticed that whenever I open Maps on my N85, a data transfer occurs, which can be seen from the 3G icon turning into the 3.5G icon with the arrows underneath, as well as from the "Mobile Internet" Log entry created afterwards.

    Why this is strange is because I have set Maps to never go online, AND I have unchecked the A-GPS method of positioning from Settings|Positioning|Positioning methods. I would have thought, therefore, that Maps will not go online when it starts - which it does.
    This is particularly inconvenient because I am currently abroad (i.e. mobile data transfers are expensive) and using the GPS quite often; the data transfers have summed up to a few hundred KB already, and I'd rather they did not continue this way. Can anyone
    help?
