Windows restarts automatically - what to do?

Sometimes Windows corrects system errors in the background and then restarts automatically afterwards.

• To prevent this, open the Control Panel.
• Here you look for the sub-item "System", which gives you an overview of your operating system and the installed hardware. You can also open this overview by entering "System" in the search.
• In the menu on the left, choose the entry "Advanced system settings".
• Under the item "Start and restore" click on "Settings".
• Under "System error" you will find the "Automatically restart" item. This is activated by default.
• Remove the check mark and save the change with a click on "OK".
