    Preventing System Shutdown/restart


    is there a way to avoid a forced restart? Many times I have work open, and microsoft windows FORCES a restart when I'm not watching. is there a way to absolutely PREVENT the computer from restarting due to updates?

    :)

    Sudden system shutdown/restart, what could be causing it?

    NO blue-screen when it crashes, just a complete shutdown indicates a hardware failure that is unrecoverable. I would suggest booting and running a live OS from DVD or USB while you do some hardware testing to prevent corruption of the OS and any files.


    Procedure is the same for either live OS or for standard.

    Remove every stick of RAM except one, unplug any hard drives not used, open case and point a fan into the case to make sure everything is staying cool and start running mem test and OCCT.

    It looks like the CPU is getting too hot, so with the case open and a fan blowing in see if it restarts.

    Preventing System Shutdown/restart

    This App is preventing shutdown message.

    *Original Title: This is preventing shutdown message.

    When I shutdown I get the message "this app. is preventing shutdown". Last night it showed 'DDES window'. I can't find what DDES window is. I went through the msconfig list and I don't see anything that seems to match. What is DDES window?
