that’s completely unacceptable as restarting is not always an option. Microsoft can tell me all they want that I should restart if my current running process is gonna take a week to complete forcing the restart is completely unacceptable. Not everyone using this stuff is watching tiktok all day that can restart at a moments notice.
Microsoft releases their patches on the same day every month. They do this specifically for planning that sort of thing. Including giving you options in the settings to pause updates for up to 5 weeks.
And that doesn’t even get into the business-oriented options available through things like WSU to give more granular and customized update options for businesses.
If you’re doing something that will take that long… Why aren’t you using the solutions available? Is it because you never bothered to look? You just wanted to complain instead? Because that’s what it looks like when there’s a literal setting dropdown, that’s not hidden at all, that would avoid your example entirely.
