Is there any way to disable the auto reboot when Vista does an update in the background? I was able to tweak the registry in XP, but I can't find anything like that in the forus for Vista. The computer shutting itself down without warning after a background update is really getting to be annoying. :rolleyes:

TIA! :D

This should do it for you.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]
"NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers"=dword:00000001
