-Tired of Windows nagging you to restart. Stop it with: Start, run, type: net stop "automatic updates" - Quotation marks are required. Another way to do this:
Modify Group Policy settings.
Start, Run "gpedit.msc" to bring up the group policy editor. Then navigate to the folder
Local Computer Policy
Computer Configuration
Administrative Templates
Windows Components
Windows Update
There are two settings and both will work, so it's your choice. Either enable No auto-restart for schedule Automatic Updates installations or set Re-prompt for restart with scheduled installations to a long time interval, like 1440 minutes.
