      Can it set it to reboot only between say 10 PM and 4 AM?

      Yes, you control that.

        Yes, you control that.

        And Snapshot at 9:50 PM (assuming this is a VM).

          @dafyre Yes the Windows 1803 patch broke our database and caused EdExpress to go wonky for quite a while until I disabled updates. As soon as Windows went to 1809 it all started working again. So just an fyi for you @dafyre if you had any troubles with this too.

            EdExpress is one of two pieces of software I'm glad I don't have to deal with anymore... (EdConnect is the other, lol).

                did you roll back to 1709? then roll up to 1809 when it came out?

                    @Dashrender Yes. I may have the version wrong but I did have to do that and then I disabled updates until 1809 tested well at my workstation.

                        1803 is not a patch. That's a new OS version. While it is handled through Windows Updates, it's not the same as a patch.
