For some reason this just started in the last year, even though I have the Group Policy "No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installations" enabled. I am regularly on this machine, but I don't want it to reboot unless I have time to prep things like open documents, etc.
Has anyone else noticed this, or has Microsoft decided that some updates it will skip group policy and just reboot the machines? Interesting enough my work machine uses the administrator schedule, and so an update install is never a 'surprise'.
For my Windows 11 machine I do not care so much as there is never anything open in terms of documents, but it would be nice to have some control as well. The only real reason is that Steam starts on boot, and prevents my monitors from shutting off.
