What is the most annoying feature of Windows Update; If you thought about reboots, Microsoft has some surprises in store for you.
Soon, Windows Update may be able to restart your computer immediately after each update instead of waiting for a convenient time…
It sounds ridiculous, but it's one of the last features which he mentioned Albacore (@thebookisclosed) on Twitter.
He has mentioned us differently other new features Windows before Microsoft officially announced it, like the Windows Sandbox recently announced. We hope Microsoft only tests this feature, and we will never see it in a "stable" version of Windows.
The good news: Operation is optional. If you want, you can add notifications with a new setting to let you know when Windows will automatically reboot your device.
"Windows Update promises to always alert you and give you the opportunity to postpone a reboot."
However, if you are away from your computer for a few minutes, you can go back and see that your computer is in the boot phase because you missed the countdown.
This feature of course confuses us once again. Who asked for it? Windows reboots already quite quickly after updates, using features such as Active Hours to restart when you are not using your computer.
The latest versions of the operating system even use machine learning to detect if you are using your computer before restarting.
Who asked to become more aggressive Windows Update reboots? Even Apple's iPads do not have the aggressive reboot option for automatic updates.
Windows 10's next major update will include a new icon for it disk system that will notify you when you need to reboot. So there is the above feature probably not needed.
If we finally see this feature, it is likely to be part of the next version of Windows, codenamed 19H1, and is about to be released in April of 2019. We hope until then, Microsoft to change its mind.
