    Why does Windows restart?


    I was working on something yesterday evening and it got late. So, I paused the VM I was working in and put the computer to sleep. The next morning, the computer is running and it did restart fully at some point during the night. My question is: what the ****? I'd say that's it.. #NotMyOS
