What grinds my gears is the scheduled waking from sleep to check for updates. And then it often doesn't go back to sleep afterwards for some reason.
Oh! And if you go into the task scheduler to hunt down the half dozen different places this function is called from, they just get turned back on with the next update.
- lunatesi 4y agoI actually set up a scheduled task that runs every 5 minutes (maybe overkill, but I didn't know with what frequency they get reenabled) to make sure any task that can wake my computer from sleep is turned off. I got so tired of Windows turning on my computer in the middle of the night, checking for updates (but never actually applying any) to apply updates, and then leaving it on all night afterwards, like WTF.
