Windows 10: Why does my computer auto-update if I do just a reboot?

I was just peacefully watching youtube and suddenly the computer started some kind of glitching or Microsoft stopped responding to commands. So i had to turn it off and it started auto-updating my system. Why is that so?

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

 

Windows updates forcibly rebooting my PC at night

I suggest to check the

1. Task Scheduler to disable auto-restart after installing updates:
   
   • Go to Task Scheduler Library/Microsoft/Windows/Update Orchestrator
     
   • disable the task named Reboot.
     

1. Another good place to check is the Group Policy Editor:
   
   • Go to Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Windows Update.. and the settings of:
     
   • No auto restart with loggedon users for scheduled automatic updates installations: Enabled
     
2. There is also a place in Windows 10 new settings:
   
   • search Change Active Hours
     
   • click on Restart Options and disable Restart
     

 

Microsoft Auto-Updates Components of Windows Without User Permission

The nine files that are updated all have to do with the Auto-Updater itself.
The article lists them all. No big deal.

I run auto-update anyway, so BRING ON THE NEW UPDATES !!!
I have yet to experience any problems from MS updates on my XP network.
