在Windows 10上，微软^(Microsoft)推出了一项设置，在下载Windows 10中的功能更新后通知您。最后，您可以选择何时安装更新，但这是有限制的。现在可以指定更新安装自动重启之前的截止日期。在这篇文章中，我们将了解它。

指定^(Specify)更新安装自动重启前的截止日期

设置这些意味着您现在可以指定Windows 10更新应何时自动运行，以及 PC 应何时重新启动以应用更改。截止日期意味着超过它后，Windows Update系统将自动执行挂起的重启，无论活动时间如何。您可以使用以下两种方法执行此操作：

1. 组策略
2. 注册表编辑器。

在更改注册表^(Registry)项之前，请确保创建一个还原点。如果您最终做了一些导致计算机出现问题的事情，您可以随时恢复。

1] 使用组策略编辑器^{(Group Policy Editor)}指定^(Specify)截止日期

1. 打开组策略编辑器
2. 导航到Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update
3. 打开一个名称为“指定更新安装自动重启之前的截止日期^{(Specify deadline before auto-restart for update installation)}”的策略，然后启用它。

启用它后，您必须在自动重启启动之前配置质量更新^{(Quality Updates)}和功能更新的天数。可以在 0 到 30 之间设置的天数。

还有一个额外的设置——宽限期^{(Grace Period)}。当您指定宽限期时，它将在自动重新启动更新安装之前覆盖指定的截止日期。宽限期结束后，无论活动时间如何，计算机都将重新启动，并且无法安排。

使用宽限期^{(Grace Period)}是个好主意，它会向最终用户发出某种警告，即他们的时间已经不多了，最好进行更新。

最后，您应该知道下面提到的政策将覆盖我们上面提到的政策。

• 指定^(Specify)更新安装自动重启前的截止日期
• 为更新指定参与^{(Specify Engaged)}的重新启动转换和通知计划
• 总是在预定时间自动重启
• 对于预定的自动更新安装，登录用户不会自动重启

2]使用注册表编辑器^{(Registry Editor)}指定^(Specify)截止日期

我在组策略^{(Group Policy)}部分解释了这么多事情是有原因的。当您启用该策略时，它会创建注册表项。您可以更改这些值以实现相同的配置。

因此，如果您想使用注册表编辑器^{(Registry Editor)}执行相同操作，请按照下列步骤操作：

• 打开注册表编辑器
• 导航

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\

• 右键单击^{(Right-click)}Windows ，^(Windows)然后创建一个新的密钥^(Key)或文件夹^(Folder)并将其命名为WindowsUpdate
• 然后创建这些 DWORDS
  • ConfigureDeadlineForFeatureUpdates
  • ConfigureDeadlineForQualityUpdates
  • 配置DeadlineGracePeriod
  • 设置合规期限
• 选择十进制单选按钮后，输入一个介于 0 到 30 之间的值。

我们希望这些步骤易于遵循，并且您能够在自动重新启动之前使用组策略^{(Group Policy)}或注册表编辑器^{(Registry Editor)}指定更新安装的截止日期。

How to specify deadline before auto-restart for Update installation

On Windows 10, Microsoft has rolled out a setting which notifies you after downloading a feature update in Windows 10. In the end, you have a choice when to install the updаte, but there is a limit to that. It iѕ now possible to specify the deadline before аuto-restаrt for update installation. In this post, we wіll learn abоut it.

Specify deadline before auto-restart for update installation

Setting up these mean you can now specify when Windows 10 updates should run automatically, and when the PC should restart to apply the changes. The deadline means that after it is crossed, the Windows Update system will automatically execute a pending restart regardless of active hours. You can do this using the following two methods:

1. Group Policy
2. Registry Editor.

Before changing Registry entries, make sure to create a restore point. In case you end up doing something which causes a problem on the computer, you can always restore.

1] Specify deadline using Group Policy Editor

1. Open Group Policy Editor
2. Navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update
3. Open a policy with name Specify deadline before auto-restart for update installation, and enable it.

When you enable it, you have to configure the number of days for Quality Updates and Feature Updates before the automatic restart kicks-in. The number of days that can be set between 0 to 30.

There is an additional setting — Grace Period. When you specify a grace period, it will override the specified deadline before auto-restart for update installation. When the grace period is over, the computer will restart regardless of active hours with no ability to schedule.

It’s a good idea to use the Grace Period which gives the end-users sort of warning that their time is running out and it’s better to update.

Lastly, you should know that the below-mentioned policies will override the policy we mentioned above.

• Specify deadline before auto-restart for update installation
• Specify Engaged restart transition and notification schedule for updates
• Always automatically restart at the scheduled time
• No auto-restart with logged on users for scheduled automatic updates installation

2] Specify deadline using Registry Editor

There is a reason why I have explained so many things in the Group Policy section. When you enable the policy, it creates registry entries. You can change the value of these to achieve the same configuration.

So, if you want to do the same using Registry Editor, follow these steps:

• Open Registry Editor
• Navigate to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\

• Right-click on Windows, and create a new Key or Folder and name it WindowsUpdate
• Then create these DWORDS
  • ConfigureDeadlineForFeatureUpdates
  • ConfigureDeadlineForQualityUpdates
  • ConfigureDeadlineGracePeriod
  • SetComplianceDeadline
• Enter a value between 0 to 30 after you choose Decimal radio button.

We hope the steps were easy to follow, and you were able to specify deadline before auto-restart for update installation using Group Policy or Registry Editor.
