I wasn't responding to that, I was responding to the part about "OS needs to reboot to install updates" being a part of life - it definitely ain't just a Windows thing.
Anyway, I'm glad that Windows restarts for me when I'm sleeping and I wish my Macs would do the same. It's pretty easy to avoid having it restart at the wrong time - you just go into the Settings and tell Windows what your active hours are. They let you enter a time range of up to 18 hours.
- tokenizerrr 9y agoThe problem is that windows will at some point start ignoring your active hours. This seems to happen if you put it to sleep after you're done working, so it's always sleeping/hibernating while outside of the active hours. This understandably pisses people off.
