Occasionally with my home PC I'll put it to sleep, and the next morning it will be off. I assume it is a windows update causing this behavior.

Any ideas how to stop this? I have sleep and hibernate disabled on the work boxes. Am I missing something?
Active hours in windows update? It will install updates at that time and then restart the computer.

Would either locking down windows update completely at an admin level, or select the "pause updates for 7 days" option work for your situation?
