8.1 Updates

[the_darjeeling]

Hi

I've been running with windows 8 for almost a year now and I've only just realised that it hasn't ever actually installed any updates.

Every time I've seen updates are available I've gone into control panel and initiated the updates as I always have done, however unlike windows 7 I now realise that it wont install the update on start up, instead it wants me to restart to install.

Is there any way to force windows 8.1 to install updates on start up rather than having to restart?

No,

It has to connect to Windows update, download the files, replace the files in question, then if required, tell the machine to replace more files on next reboot.

It does install the updates on startup.

It actually starts the process when shutting down (the first 35% or so) and completes it on the next startup.

That's a shame, oh well it only takes a minute to restart.

Thanks for your help.
