Shut down to install

I recently bought a new computer and set it up and installed the updates on
the first day. The message on the log off screen says to click the turn off
button to finish installing the updates and the computer will turn off
itself. It never does. It is still on the next morning. So the computer has
to be shut off by holding the power button. Also because those updates have
not installed yet, another available update will not install properly.

Check the power options in Windows (display
properties/screensaver page) and in the BIOS.

Normally a warm boot (restart) is all that is needed for
Windows to update.
