How To Tuesday: Updating your computer is almost complete - Restart Now?
Anyone who is running Windows XP SP2 knows about that pesky little pop-up message that occurs after installing a Microsoft update. That stupid, annoying, most ill-designed dialog box ever invented in the history of the computer science that asks “Updating your computer is almost complete. You must restart your computer for the updates to take effect. Do you want to restart your computer now?”
There are then two options: Restart Now/Restart Later. “Restart Later” means that this stupid thing will ask you again in 10 minutes. Yes, if you’re willing to work for the next 4 hours until lunch before rebooting, this means you’ll need to answer this question 24 times.
Check out the easy way to fix this problem, but unfortunately it only works for those of you who are running XP Pro. XP Home users, here is your reason to upgrade.
