    How do I prevent Win10 rebooting during the night ?


    I am copying a large amount of data to the network, and doing this overnight.

    Frustratingly, Windows 10 has decided to reboot a few times during the night and this has caused the copy to stop etc.

    I already renamed the Reboot file to Reboot.old in this directory:
    C:\Windows\System32\Tasks\Microsoft\Windows\UpdateOrchestrator

    What else can I do to stop Win10 from rebooting ?

    (Win10 Pro, latest)

    :)

    Why would your computer reboot at night? Something does not sound right there.
