This doesn't work if it's been a while since I last booted into my Windows partition. Windows immediately decides I'm past the point where I can defer. It does show a notification immediately beforehand, but if I'm asleep that isn't useful.

You can disable the Reboot task present under Task Scheduler Library > Microsoft > Windows > UpdateOrchestrator in the Task Scheduler app I haven't had a Windows 10 computer just randomly reboot and I work with about 30 PCs.

Respectfully, if you're using the PC's for work I'm guessing they don't get turned off (or stay in alternate OS's) for extended periods.

I'll take a look at task scheduler, thanks.

Yep, they basically keep your asking once in a while “are you ready?” and let you dismiss it as much as you want until finally you click “yeah, go ahead”.

You can go into your storage listing and delete the update from there. Then it won’t nag you anymore

I don't mind it nagging me once a day, I appreciate updates. I just want to do it at my own pace.
