Let’s admit it, we’ve all encountered such situations. Most of the time we really couldn’t do anything to prevent Windows from restarting.

A solution to avoid such unpleasant events is to schedule Windows 10 to restart.

Select a date and time when you know you won’t be using your computer for very important tasks, and unexpected computer restarts will never catch you by surprise.

There are two methods to schedule Windows 10 restarts: using the native Settings menu or installing specialized third-party apps.

As a quick reminder, if you prefer to schedule restarts using the Settings menu, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Settings > Update & security > Advanced options

  2. From the drop-down menu, select the option Notify to schedule restart

  3. Go back to Windows Update > Select a restart time > schedule the restart.

If you want to use a dedicated third-party software to schedule Windows 10 restarts, check out the tools listed below.
