I'm using win10 and usually restart to update pretty quickly, but this
time when it asked for now, set a time, or Later, twice I chose later.

This morning, I saw that the computer had restarted. It must have,
because no programs were open. Maybe there was a short power failure.

But 10 minutes afte I started using it, I got that same question, when
do I want to install updates, now, set a time, or later.

How did it manager to restart last night without installing them? Is
that because some essential part of installation occurs during normal
shutdown and I must have had a crash? Or could it be that it never
did restart, but somehow all the programs closed?

Event Viewer should have an entry about an unplanned shutdown (or words
to that effect) if it was a crash.

I went through every section twice and didn't see anything like that.

There were not tasks in the task bar. That's how I concluded all the
programs had stopped. And the desktop was showing completely.

How could the programs stop by themselves, especially all of them?


How can it make an entry in a log if there is a power failure? Does it
do it when it restarts?


I did see an hour before I stopped using it, but I don't see how this
would matter:

Windows Update started downloading an update.

It can put an entry in Task Scheduler, to wake itself during the
"non-busy" period you set in your Active Hours. It's also dumb
enough to not handle it properly. I.e. You could actually install an
update, and it would leave the Task Scheduler entry, then when it
awakes, it says "why am I awake again" ? Because there is no
work to do, so a few minutes later it goes back to sleep.

Because it just does a reboot after waking from sleep
(to make the Update finish installing), and of course it
kills all your running programs...

Are you beginning to see who is driving this bus ?

It ain't you.

Microsoft.OneConnect Paid Wi-Fi & Cellular Uninstall through UI? = No

But there are articles about removal. I guess you would
class that as "Store Promotional" as if you were to connect
to a paid provider, MS would probably get compensated or
something. I tried Googling the term and the word
"Review" and didn't see any examples of its usage.

Yes, during restart. Here's an example from one of my PCs from just this morning:

Level: Critical
Source: Kernel-Power
Event ID: 41
Task category: 63
Message: "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first.
This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or
lost power unexpectedly."

It gives you a delayed time you can set if you ignore it it will force
update and reboot after a certain amount hours have passed does it with
windows 7 as well
