    how do I make windows 7 download updates at Shut Down


    Windows used to download and install updates at Shut Down. Now it is doing it during the day and closing down which looses programs that are running. How do I change it back to Shut Down ?

    Hello Mr.Belong, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    You could use the tutorial below to disable Windows Update from automatically restarting the computer. This way you won't loose anything anymore.
    Next, double check to make sure that you have the install new updates time is set to when you like.
    Next, double check to make sure that you have "install updates and shut down" enabled to have updates (if available) install when you shut down.
    Hope this helps, :)
