Hello, Windows 10 installs updates automatically and then restarts your computer automatically if it needs to during "off hours". There is no way to turn it off except that you can temporarily pause automatic updates for a limited period of time then need to re-pause it after that time if you don't want your computer (Server) to restart automatically. This causes Sesame Server to crash because it cannot shutdown properly and then locks the database. I was wondering if there was a workaround for this issue. I know there's a way that you can use task scheduler to open Sesame Server on starting up Windows but is there a way that you could run a task to take Sesame through the Server Shutdown process before Windows restarts. Kind of like when it asks you if you want to save your work or not if you have a document left open before restart? Thanks for any help. Trying to limit downtime by causing the Server to shutdown and restart seamlessly with minimal user input.

Thanks, those are great ideas. I will look into that and see if I can get something working. I like the idea of automatically shutting down Sesame Server before "off hours" though. Then maybe automatically restarting Sesame Server either during "on hours" and/or at reboot.
