Relating to my <a href="http://www.pixelhum.com/archives/2005-05-26/windows-update-blues/">post in August</a> and <a href="http://binarybonsai.com">Michael's</a> <a href="http://binarybonsai.com/archives/2005/11/09/restart-windows/">recent post</a>, here is the registry fix in question. The fix prevents Windows Update from automatically restarting your machine if any users are logged in, thus preventing any data loss.
<br clear="left" />
<pre><code>Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]
"NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers"=dword:00000001
</code></pre>
