Windows 10 restarts automatically

1

Since around a week my Windows starts automatically from hibernation. In the Event-Viewer I've found an event "NT TASK\Microsoft\Windows\rempl\shell" which reactivates Windows. This event is triggered around 10:00 every day and will execute "%ProgramFiles%\rempl\remsh.exe.

I would like to know what exactly this program does and if it's useful and how I can make it stop to reactivate my PC everyday.

I'm not certain what rempl and remsh are, but I've seen similar behavior from Windows Update. – Christopher Hostage – 2017-10-12T19:28:18.843

It's reliability improvements related files. According to this Microsoft official document:

2Thanks. Do you know why this needs to be run every day at 10:00 and if it's ok to not letting it reactivate the PC? – Merl – 2017-09-29T10:16:47.070

Yes, you can disable it. – Waka – 2017-10-03T04:55:48.277

I noticed the same problem and since it is unclear for me what is the effect of its disable, I took a more defensive approach by just not allowing the task to wake up the computer:

Disable wake up
