Usually it happens a little differently.

Windows: Your system is up to date!
User: All right! I have some urgent work planned for tomorrow morning, so I wanted to make sure while I had time.

Windows: I downloaded some updates, it is only 14 gigabytes. do you want to restart?
User: No! I have to work now.
Windows: No? I'll remember that.

User: Oh, shit.

User: Please, don't fail. Pretty please. I'll wait. Just don't fail. I will never say "no" to you again. I'll even start signing in with online account!
