So if you are a person who works most at night, you can schedule your active hours during the day while you are away from your computer. Microsoft has made it easier for users to work especially for individuals with different or shifting schedules. Scheduling a restart can make it more convenient for them and could avoid interruptions during hours when they rely on the PC the most. Since updates have already become mandatory, Microsoft cares about how this could affect the users. Its aim is to adjust to what the world needs. It is a new way for Microsoft to develop and release software with a goal to continuously grow. There will be new features every time which will depend on the needs of the users via the Windows Insider program. Wondering why Microsoft added this feature? With the new system, Microsoft has evolved to the notion of “Windows as a service.” This means that Windows is an on-going product with constant updates and patches. How important are updates and scheduling restarts?

Now you can be notified ahead of time before your computer starts to install updates and restart its system. Once done, you can return to the previous screen by hitting the back button on the upper left.

You can also set additional notifications before your system restarts to give you more time to save your work. If you happen to be a Windows Insider, you can set your active hours for 18 hours with an option to choose when the OS should finish its updates.
You will now receive prompts whenever updates require a restart of your PC. This way, you will no longer find the need to keep checking the Settings menu if updates have already been installed.

Go through those easy and simple steps and you no longer have to worry about your computer restarting whenever there is a need for you to leave it for a short period of time. Know that Windows schedules its own reboot first and you will have to override it through the Settings page to adjust it to your own schedule. If you want updates to start immediately, you can choose the Restart Now option at the bottom of the page.
