I freakin hate Microsoft Windows. It really blows donkeys. One great example is how on Windows XP. If a critical system update has downloaded the computer desperately wants to reboot, desperate like a guy trying to lose his virginity on prom night.
Like a spoiled child it asks you every few minutes "Are we there yet?" Windows sometimes asks if you'd like to reboot. Your options are yes or ask me again. So in like 5 or 10 minutes it will ask you again.
Since I have a Windows laptop as a secondary computer, I shut if off all the time when I'm not using it, so having to be reminded that it needs to reboot is moot.
It is espcially annoying when I am doing a presentation in front of many people and have to pause in my deliberations to restart my computer.
But there is a workaround.
Start / Run / gpedit.msc / Local Computer Policy / Computer Configuration / Administrative Templates / Windows Components / Windows Update / Re-prompt for restart with scheduled installations
