    Will Update Ask for Confirm Before Restart?


    I have Win 10 updates set to "Notify to Schedule Restart". Will it ask me to confirm before it restarts (since it seems to schedule them about 3:00 a.m. when I'm asleep). I'd rather my computer not reboot without my ok. Thanks.

    :)

    Ask for confirmation before connecting GPRS?

    nLinked,

    Your device will always try to connect to the internet using GPRS, instead of wifi, whenever given half the chance.

    You can try to force it to use wifi, by selecting all your network connections to My Work Network, instead of Internet...

    Alternatively, you can use a third party app to "turn off GPRS" totally, and then only "turn on GPRS", when you want to use.

    You may want to check out this app... ( http://www.modaco.com/content/pocket-pc-software/246171/new-free-utility/ )

    Cheers...

    Ask for confirmation before connecting GPRS?

    If my Wi-Fi is turned off and the phone automatically decides to connect to the Internet using GPRS, is there a way for it to ask for a confirmation before connecting to GPRS?

    Will Update Ask for Confirm Before Restart?

    As far as I can tell, the answer's "No". If you have the Update app running, it'll state there that there's an update that requires you to restart, but it'll schedule the restart itself. My laptop has started itself at 2:30am several times, having downloaded an update without advising me. *Mad

    Today when I woke up my computer (desktop) it told me about the scheduled update and ask if wanted to schedule it myself. So that's fine.

    Also, I've since learned that if you have a wireless connection and set it to "Metered" supposedly it will ask about updates.

    I haven't seen an option to disable forced reboots for updates or at least require a button click before restarting. M$ needs to fix this by at least providing options. Thanks for pointing this out.
