why do computers need to reboot after an update

736 views

I thought more recent OS had ways to update files currently in use and not require reboots.
Corporate policy of rebooting once a week and forcing it is killing me: I usually have tens of excel windows interlinked, and having to reboot daily just saps my will to live….

I shut down my computer, and restart it (not ‘reboot’) at least twice a week.

However, the corporate software sentry will still pop up every 7 days saying a ‘reboot’ is required.

Why does a shut down and power on not count as a reboot?
