Leave your PC on for updates

Quick Tip -
Go to your power options settings and make sure your timeout for when the computer goes to sleep - powers down - is set to NEVER for when you are plugged in.  Or at the very least set to 5 hours.  You can always manually shut the PC off.
WHY?
There are important security and software updates that need to be installed on your PC weekly.  The recommended default is to leave this set to automatic.  Unfortunately, if you have a limited network speed, the computer will not download the updates while you are using the system because it can interfere with what you are doing.  If your PC shuts down soon after you stop using it, many of the larger updates may never install.

I came across this while supporting a client who is part of the IT support service.  Please consider this service if you do not have regular assistance on maintaining your PC.
