My main Windows 7 Pro computer that I use every day, the one that is connected to everything, 3 Moniters, 5 usb drives, my living room TV, and an outside antenna, and 3 keyboards is suddenly restarting at night on its own. When I start my TV in the morning and scroll through the options to "My Computer", instead of my desktop showing where I left it the night before, there is a big font message that says, "You are no longer able to receive updates, You are no longer able to get help from Microsoft, You must update your computer to Windows 10." When I x that out, it takes me to my password that allows me to enter the password, and once I enter the password, things are back to normal and my desktop is showing. I went to my control panel and checked my updates and found the following two updates below had been entered at 3:02AM this morning.
I was not having any issues or problems with my computer before the updates at 3:02 AM this morning so why did Microsoft do this? If I no longer get updates, it will cut off my MS Security Essentials updates
