I have my Mac connected to my PC and on Win7 accessing the Mac's files was a breeze but on Win10 when I try to access the Mac Windows says it can't connect, giving the old "the name might be wrong" and "check your connection" excuses for about a couple of minutes and then it suddenly works just fine. It's not a huge problem but having to wait a few minutes until I can access files on my Mac is kind of a drag. Is this a common thing? I connected the two by allowing the PC to access the Mac's files on the Mac and just typing the name of the Mac on the resource management address bar and entering username/password.

Why doesn't Windows have the option to manually restart after an update? Giving it a set time to update restart is all well and fine but why is it limited to that? I have a Win 10 computer doing things that take hours and hours and frequently they get screwed over because of an update and Windows decides to reboot afterwards. How do you turn this off?

The computer in question is doing video stuff pretty much 24/7 so setting up a schedule around the six-hour window you're allowed doesn't work. And Windows always sneaks the updates in there and the restart is always super abrupt with only the tiny notification thing in the corner to signal it. I'd be fine if it threw up a tiny window pestering me about restarting every 30 minutes or something, not booting up on its own and corrupting files in the process. E: Maybe I'll just take it offline while it works or something.

What I mean by that is that there's no way to disable it entirely, Windows just gives you a time period when you're not active on the computer but the computer is active all the time so that option doesn't work. More time would be even worse since that would make it even harder to narrow down when it might reboot, but the smallest amount isn't small enough for that either.

I'll update it between jobs, that's not a problem. A notification to remind me to restart for new updates would be ideal but I don't mind having to do the whole thing manually if it means I don't waste hours on a task because Windows wrecked it by rebooting.
