Time-Based Restart for "Pending Reboot"

Automatically restart the computer at a specified time, but only if a pending reboot exists. Ideally, with a freely configurable advance warning for the user and a configurable display duration.

Challenge:

  • Users who shut down and restart their PC daily (with Fast Startup disabled) generally do not need an additional restart.

  • Users who leave their PC on for several days or simply close the lid often retain a pending reboot status.

Solution:

An automatic nightly reboot with a warning only for devices with a pending reboot, to optimally accommodate both types of users. A conditional reboot ensures that updates are activated promptly without bothering users with multiple reminders or triggering unnecessary reboots.
