Understanding the Cause of Automatic System Restarts
Automatic system restarts can be frustrating, especially when they occur during important tasks. In Windows 10, these restarts are often caused by system failures or errors. Understanding the cause of these automatic restarts can help you disable them and regain control over your computer.
One common cause of automatic system restarts is the “Automatic Restart on System Failure” feature. This feature is designed to automatically restart your computer after a system failure, such as a blue screen error. While this can be helpful for diagnosing and resolving issues, it can also be disruptive if you need to manually troubleshoot or recover from a system failure.
To disable automatic restarts on system failure in Windows 10, follow these steps:
1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.
2. Type “sysdm.cpl” and press Enter to open the System Properties window.
3. Click on the “Advanced” tab.
4. Under the “Startup and Recovery” section, click on the “Settings” button.
5. In the “System failure” section, uncheck the box next to “Automatically restart”.
6. Click OK to save your changes and exit the window.
By disabling the automatic restart feature, you can prevent your computer from restarting automatically after a system failure. This allows you to take the necessary steps to diagnose and resolve the issue without interruptions.
