Windows 10: Four times

Four times today my computer restarted simply because I was away for more than ten minutes. Seriously, MS, don't force restarts on people just because they were gone from the computer a bit too long for your liking, especially not several times a day! Let us actually choose if we want to update or not. Let us know of them, don't force them, that simple.

We would like to know more about your concern. Are you still experiencing the same issue on a different Windows 10 PC after doing the Windows Creator's Update or has it been resolved? Is there any error message?

Regards.

Well that's quire an assessment there! screwwin10 Welcome to the Ten Forums by the way!

As to what are you referring to however may not be specific to MS but some other software? Often depending the types of softwares you have on that start up along with Windows some of those may be auto updating which also requires a full system restart. And unless you have something specific like a popup indicating Windows updates are available have you gone in and manually checked but clicked on the schedule for restart later at all rather then clicking the immediate restart button?

Scheduling would end up seeing a system restart if not a power management setting to sleep or hibernate ending up with a full restart instead. First you need to trace things back to the cause.
