I honestly don't even know where to look. I've uninstalled everything that wasn't needed to run.
The answer was given above and rejected. Wipe the system.
that's what I said as well.
But that doesnt work for my boss . So now I'm stuck looking for something that wont show up .His thing is it would be a lot of work.
Ask him how much it costs to lose the customer.

We've had this discussion and he said " You just gotta keep looking. You want to give the customer and answer right now and thats not how this works. Keep looking."

No, the customer wants an answer right now. Very different things.

Fixing poor management practices.

Could be hardware or software. Just replace the PC and install everything from scratch.
Or spend many hours on it and then when you give up, reinstall everything and after that didn't work, replace the PC and install everything from scratch.

The problem is - what are you supposed to be 'looking' for? have you spent those 5 hours typing random stuff into Google in hopes of finding a solution?
I guess I would start sending your boss all your search terms.. every hour.. make a list of the google search terms.. and include the sites you read based on those terms to show that you aren't getting anywhere.

I've only spent about 2.5 hours typing stuff into google.
I have, event sent them to him and asked if he was seeing anything that I was missing to try.
still, "Keep looking." -

Your boss has intentionally withheld a known fix from the customer for a week?

what? no
He doesn't know either.

@WrCombs said in Windows 10 Reboots:
what? no
He doesn't know either.This conflicts with the rest of the thread. Did you or did you not tell him that you need to re-image the device?

How does it conflict with rest of the thread? .
yes, I Suggested we re-image it.
You guys just said he's the boss, and he has final say so.
SO my suggestion was swept under the rug.

@WrCombs said in Windows 10 Reboots:
It's only rebooting after hours, and my boss just said " there's a program telling it to restart. and then restart again and then restart again."
According to this, he claimed to know the issue.

@Dashrender said in Windows 10 Reboots:
Personally - I'd wipe and reload it long before buying a new machine, but you're remote, so that's a harder decision.
And here, two weeks ago, Dash told the realistic fix. This will at least tell you if it is software or hardware. This is the key step to diagnostics. By twelve days ago, avoiding this, was avoiding a fix.
