This time it's the 7" Windows tablet I bought a couple weeks ago.

Definitely, 100%-surly, absolutely-for-certain had Windows Update turned
off... as in *OFF!* with a capital "F"....

Now, after a reboot, it's been sitting for over 3 hours with a prompt
"Keep your PC on until this is done. Installing update 1 of 1...."

I suspect it's the screen saver/sleep/hibernation setting that's a
problem... where every five or 10 minutes it kicks in and, in addition
to turning off the screen, it stops the processor.

I've got a "Good" image and a ShadowProtec boot stick... but I've never
tried re-imaging this thing and would prefer not to start now.

Anybody else been here?




I've had that happen too...and worse still...Windows insisted on wanting
to reboot and there was no way to set the schedule longer than four hours.

When it got close to reboot time, I reset the schedule for another 4
hours but that was of course ignored and the machine rebooted anyway.

I see no problem in having Windows remind the user from time to time
that a reboot is necessary...but to go ahead and just do it is inexcusable.

It looks like Win10 will allow 24 hours...but that is less than ideal.
