    From Richard Vonzel@1:282/1038 to All on Wed Jan 10 09:54:04 2024
    Hello everybody!

    Once every week or so my computer reboots in the middle of the night, is there a log file that I can view to see why it's doing that?

    Hi,
    This is probably just windows update doing its thing, but you probably can check the event viewer as to why the reboot occured.

    As Tom mentioned, the Event Viewer tool could be useful and identify the trigger.

    Yup. I run Win 11 and it is about once a week that it upgrades.
