fix(updates): notify before installing downloaded updates (#5105)
* fix(windows update): prevent sudden restart Microsoft has documented that the `NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers` registry key is unreliable and does not work as described in newer versions of Windows. To effectively prevent unexpected restarts in modern configurations, this PR updates the `Recommended` settings workflow on the `Updates` tab. Changes - Modify `AUOptions` to 3: automatic download and manual installation. - Remove the obsolete registry key. - Keep the removal of the registry key in functions that reset Windows Update to default. - Update UI text and documentation. - Update Pester tests.

- **Feature updates**: Delayed by **365 days** to reduce the chance of disruption from major Windows changes.
|
||||
- **Quality updates**: Delayed by **4 days** to allow time for early issues to surface while still keeping the system protected.
|
||||
- **Drivers**: Excluded from Windows quality updates.
|
||||
- **Restarts**: Scheduled updates do not automatically restart Windows while a user is signed in. A restart explicitly scheduled by a user still takes precedence.
|
||||
- **Installation**: Updates download automatically and notify you when they are ready to install. This setting does not control restarts after installation.
|
||||
- **Availability**: Update deferral policies apply to Windows Pro, Enterprise, and Education editions.
|
||||
- **Why use it**: This mode offers the best balance between security and stability, which is why it is the recommended option for most PCs.
