Explanation

When Windows Update is set to 'Automatic,' Windows will download and install updates without user intervention and then schedule or force a restart to complete the installation. On non-persistent desktops, updates applied to the running VM are lost at reset-but the restart prompt still occurs mid-session because Windows detects a pending update requiring reboot. This is a common VDI misconfiguration. The gold image should have Windows Update disabled or managed through WSUS/GPO with controlled maintenance windows. Java auto-updates (A) and screen timeout (B) do not cause restart prompts. A mandatory profile version (D) affects profile compatibility, not restarts.
