    Hi，

    If you decide not to reboot your computers after you install critical- or security-related updates, your computer will not be patched yet and will still be vulnerable to bugs. Event ID 21 warns you if the computer is set to not reboot.

    In Event Viewer, under Application and Services Logs\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdateClient should show you return errors.

    Best regards,
