That's always so annoying, because Windows isn't my default boot entry, so I need to babysit its "totally not a reboot" update.

I somewhat get it - end as much processes as possible, apply everything that is possible, then restart and apply the remainder. My pet peeve is just that it should automatically shut down after applying the updates instead of staying at the lock screen, when I say install and shutdown...

Okay, that part it does for me though. That's extra annoying for you then.

Yeah on one hand I get the concept, on the other macOS and Linux manage without, and I don't really remember older Windows doing this either, so I wonder if there is a real reason why it's needed, or they just engineered themselves into a bad corner...
