    How do i completely disable active hours?


    I dont want it. At all. I am tired of randomly waking up between 3am and 6am to turn off my laptop which turns into a jet engine because of random updates i specifically clicked the "i dont want this" button for. I would close the lid, on battery btw, and expect it to go to sleep and yet there it was, getting louder by the second. I dont need this. i dont WANT this. i certainly DONT CARE about it or the updates. idc about the security risks, and i certainly do not care about "cool and new" features that keep getting crammed into such a bloated operating system which serve no function other tha

    :)

    Hello Daniel,

    If you wish to add more hours or to have an option to turn off the Active Hours, then the feature is currently unavailable on Windows phone. It is best if you can send a suggestion to make the features available using the
    Feedback Hub app. To send a suggestion on your Windows phone, you can follow the steps provided below:

    • Go to All Apps, search for the Feedback
      Hub app.
    • Open the menu icon at the top left side.
    • Select Feedback, then at the top right side, tap the
      add
      button (+).
    • Select Suggestionand fill up the box with the details needed.
    • Select the right category and then Submit.

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond How do i completely disable active hours? :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

    Configuring active hours with Group Policy.



    Please refer the section for Configure active hours
