    My Windows 10 PC now reboots whenever I leave it alone for a few hours - reboot loop?

    This appears to be similar to the issue reported in this forum and CNET on 8/11/2015, where a bad entry in the registry caused some PCs to get caught in a reboot/reupdate loop.

    Windows 10 update triggers reboot glitch for some users

    After the update fails to install properly the first time around, Windows 10 tries to roll it back as is standard procedure. But since the update is automated and forced, Windows tries to install it again after rebooting,
    causing a loop of reboots for some users. Writer Adrian Kingsley-Hughes of CNET sister site ZDNet wrote about his travails
    trying to install the update     on Sunday and getting stuck in a series of reboots. I installed the update on Sunday, but it ran smoothly on my Windows 10 Lenovo laptop. So as usual, the problem seems to affect only
    a certain percentage of users.

    Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a fix coming from Microsoft?

    Thanks,

    Ken

    KB3081424 download continually fails

    This issue is widespread, and I'd like to know if Microsoft is doing anything to remedy the problem.

    The story is largely the same for most people- the update will install to around 50%, then it will tell you "Update could not be installed, undoing changes..." There is also no way to see what the problem is without any error code. It's been about 4-5 days
    now. Other updates like drivers work fine.

    Mine is not stuck in a perpetual "reboot loop" like others, although it does reboot 4-5 times upon failure with the same "unable to install" showing up.

    Here are some articles explaining the problem.
