Windows 11 reboots itself - Annoying!

For those missing gpedit.msc I followed these steps which worked for me on Windows 11 Home: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/how-to-enable-the-gpeditmsc-on-windows-10-and-11/dbc76919-f2b5-4dec-a2b7-bcf545c34d00

To install the Local Group Policy Editor in Windows 10 Home edition, open a command prompt as administrator and run two one-line commands in sequence:

FOR %F IN ("%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientTools-Package~*.mum") DO (DISM /Online /NoRestart /Add-Package:"%F")FOR %F IN ("%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientExtensions-Package~*.mum") DO (DISM /Online /NoRestart /Add-Package:"%F")

How do I fix this issue? The reboots are getting obnoxious.

That doesn't sound like an update issue--updates don't occur anywhere near that often. Check the Windows System Event log for warnings/errors as this sounds like a crash issue. Also, disable auto-restart after crashes. It's the very first reply on this question.

Same thing is happening but in windows 10 ltsc 2021, but not exactly the same. It shuts down any time it wants, sometimes just as as the desktop loads, or sometimes while browsing, or while installing or using heavy programs like fusion 360, Photoshop etc.

The issue can be caused by many things, NOT just scheduled updates. In my case, I log on every morning to find that the PC has invariably rebooted overnight, and the cause is a system failure. Since the OP reported this happening every night as well, the original answer is on point, I believe.

If this happens to you, check your event viewer and look for warnings and errors under "administrative events." I can almost guarantee those of you who experience this daily will see events that are triggering the reboots, and it's almost always going to be due to 3rd party conflicts, permissions, etc.
