    Is there any REAL way to disable this cancer feature?


    This is not the first time i have lost unsaved work due to this annoying function, that almost every Windows user hates.


    I'm trying to behave, but it is really hard to keep calm after loosing unsaved work multiple times.


    Why is it that Windows cannot just wait until the user decides to restart at a convenient time? It's not like the end of the world that users doesn't restart at a specific time.


    In a time where Apple's Mac is already "stealing" a lot of Windows customers, it is a very risky (and dumb) feature to add to Windows.

    This alone is very difficult to argue against in a Mac vs. Windows discussion.


    Luckily (for Microsoft) Microsoft have secured themselves from a law suit in their policy.


    MS knows that all Windows users hates this feature, and yet they still have it. WHY?


    So back to the question. Is there any official/unofficial way (FOR GOOD) that allows me to disable this annoying feature?

    I tried following some tutorials on YouTube, but little did it help obviously, as i just came home and found my computer restarted, and my work deleted.

    :)
