  1. Computer keeps "needing to restart" after update


    Three days ago an update slipped through and since then my desktop has been suddenly going to a blue screen with a big "frown face" telling me there is an error and my computer has to restart. I have had this computer for a little less than a year and I have never had any problems until now. When this happens I can do nothing to stop it. When it shuts down I lose all my work that wasn't saved a second before. It restarted three times in a row which set off a whole other set of problems. I have tried to contact M support with no success. I need my computer for work, and I am getting no help from Microsoft.


    I do not understand how an update came through automatically because I have automatic updates turned off.


    Can anyone please help me stop the restarts?!

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.


    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Computer keeps "needing to restart" after update :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

    random restarts

    Hi Lili,

    Hardware failure or system instability can cause the computer to
    randomly restarts. As our initial troubleshooting step, we suggest you to run the Power troubleshooter on your computer and check if it fixes the issue. Here are the steps:

    • Press Windows key.
    • Type Troubleshoot.
    • Under Find and fix other problems look for
      Power.
    • Then Run the troubleshooter.

    Update us with the outcome and if you need further assistance.
