    Does Win10 download+install Updates when Login=Welcome screen is up?


    Assume I boot Win10 but do NOT login.

    So currently the Login=Welcome screen is visible.

    Does Win10 in this state (auto)search for updates, download and install them?

    In other words: Is auto-update Win10 user-independent or a user login required?

    Related question: From Android it is known that updates from Google Play Store are only automatically downloaded+installed when the SmartPhone is currently connected with a power cable.

    This should avoid interrupted/corrupted App downloads when battery is empty.

    Is this the same with Win10?
    So when my notebook runs currently on battery no auto-updates are performed?

    Correct?

    Can't login to new computer w/Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for your reply.


    • Are you able to login to Microsoft Account on Web?

    • Have you installed any language pack?
    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.

    Step 1: I suggest you to select the appropriate language in login screen at the bottom right corner and check if it helps.

    Steps 2: Use On-screen keyboard in the login screen to login and check if it helps.

    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.
