    I’ve never had windows force a reboot and I don’t even turn my PC off at night like the other guy does

    I just tell it to schedule a time for the middle of the night and go from there

    I think maybe back in the xp/vista days that happened once or twice, but not in well over a decade now

      At least that works for you. I’ve never been able to get windows to respect my “active hours.” Especially on my work laptop - I work overnight, and frequently have to open up a command prompt to override the forced scheduled restart. Even though the active hours thing allows you to put in a day that starts at PM and ends at AM, something about my work day crossing over midnight apparently just makes windows shit its diaper.

      Edit: Dang, fuck me for just relaying my experience. Didn’t realize we weren’t allowed to criticize the godOS.
