I was right in the middle of writing an email at work when my screen went black with "Restarting" in white text in the middle of the display. Last night I got a notification that said updates had been installed with two options. One, restart now. Two, restart in 5 minutes. I told it to restart now. It didn't. A few minutes later I was ready to sign off, and the pop-up reappeared. I told it to restart in 5 minutes. This morning it hadn't restarted. Now? Restarts with no warning. Windows is shit..
