Stop Windows Rebooting After Updates
Posted November 14, 2008
Are you sick of your computer rebooting after you have installed Windows updates? Here’s a useful registry tweak to prevent this from happening.
Click Start > Run > Type: regedit > Ok
Find the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU
Right click on the right hand panel and select New > Dword. Call it NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers, double click it and make the value 1.
Exit regedit and Windows won’t automatically reboot after an update anymore.
