After Windows 1803 update, Patch My PC is not downloading properly. Results in a rapid splash of how should look with a notification of Going to Work followed by a logging me out in a minute message that then restarts my PC! All without doing anything or allowing me to stop it!

We will be disabling the restart after updates option soon as it's had some unintended consequences. Can you delete the KHLM\Software\Patch My PC settings? That should make it so it doesn't restart after running.

Following this allowed for successful reinstall of the program: delete this registry key HKLM\Software\Patch My PC

May anyone else who is having this difficulty find it as useful
