To prevent Windows 10 from restarting automatically after the deadline, you can change the automatic restart timeout settings. Here's how.
Typically, after downloading and installing Windows Updates, Windows attempts to restart your system to apply the installed updates. If you have configured active hours, it will attempt to restart your system outside of active hours. When Windows fails to restart your system outside of business hours, the general time limit is seven days. Once the seven day period has passed, Windows will force itself to restart.
By changing the relevant settings, you can change or modify the automatic restart delay for installing updates. It's quite easy to do. Follow the steps and everything will be fine.
In Windows 10, when a new update installs, you will receive a notification informing you that your device will automatically restart outside of your "active hours/" to apply the new changes, and if necessary, you can Always reschedule a reboot using the Windows Update Settings.
The only downside is that you can only postpone a reboot for up to seven days, and it's a manual process that you have to do every time a new update is available. However, if you need to reschedule a deadline for each update, it is possible to configure a policy in Group Policy or edit the registry to specify a new default deadline (up to 14 days) that Windows 10 will use to automatically restart your device.
In this Windows 10 guide, we'll walk you through the steps to change the default schedule your computer uses to automatically restart to apply system updates.
Windows 10 is set to automatically check for updates unless you manually turn off this feature. There is the Specify delay before automatic restart for update installation policy that allows you to specify the delay in days before the operating system automatically restarts outside of business hours. The deadline can be set individually for quality and feature updates.
This tutorial will apply to computers, laptops, desktops and tablets running Windows 10 (Home, Pro, Business, Education) operating system from all supported hardware manufacturers, such as Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo and Samsung. .
