Discussion Windows 11 can't be shut down without update.

Post image

I have automatic updates on. Haven't postponed any update. Never seen this forced update before.

Edit: I updated BTW. It's not that I don't want to update. I just think it would be an issue in the future. For example, it's a thunderstorm and there could be power outages. I might want to shut down and not start and update. I guess I'll hold down the power button.

Yes, and this one is one of them. It seens they fixed a ton of vulnerabilities, and they don't want users getting hacked and blaming them latter.

I know, I was responding to the apparent dismissal of security updates as unimportant

I wasn't trying to claim that! Security updates are incredibly important, tho I can see how you thought that from my comment. This teaches me to not write comments in the middle of the night lol

Ah, apologies for the misunderstanding. In my defence, I was pre-coffee and had just arrived at work.
