    How can you stop this? When Windows completes updates it tells me it requires a restart, I tell it I'll do it later, then it decides, well you took too long so screw your work or anything you're in the middle of, I'm restarting now. Seriously? Who thought this was a good idea to be set on by default? And knowing Microsoft I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't even an option to disable it at all.

    Remove consent for a child account??

    I have a similar issue. When I go to remove consent, 2 of my children are not even on the list to remove consent.

    Inexplicable restarts

    Thanks for your patient help and analysis, zbook. I'll step through some of your suggestions over the next few days - there's a lot to do and some look a bit hairy! That is, for a PC that is working sweetly right now...

    Meanwhile, as requested in the BSOD thread (sorry, I misunderstood and posted there by mistake), I've attached both ZIP files.

    One step I did try right away was to answer your question about whether my BIOS is up-to-date. I had no success at the AMI site but did get some info from this commercial site:
