    Option 1 on that link stops updates from running on their own, but once you update you are forced to reboot. Also I had problems with that solution causing stalling forever on "Installing updates 0%". Option 2 is for hiding specific updates, like broken drivers. Doesn't really apply. Option 3 again will stop updates from installing in the first place, but will not stop reboots once they're installed. Windows 10 completely ignores the "No auto-restart with logged on users" policy from that same group. The only way I have found to stop my computer from rebooting after installing an update is #2 in the link below. This works, 100%. https://superuser.com/questions/973009/conclusively-stop-wake-timers-from-waking-windows-10-desktop/973029#973029 https://superuser.com/questions/973009/conclusively-stop-wak...
