Windows sent down an update a few days ago.
I know at work, I've had issues with auto-update hanging apps, and sometimes locking the PC.
When you reboot, Windows applies the update, so it's not immediately apparent why the lock-up occurred.
Is it possible that the lock-up occurred during the recent windows update deployment?
Not in my case. I don't let Windows install updates by itself - it just tells me when there are some.I know at work, I've had issues with auto-update hanging apps, and sometimes locking the PC.

Or is there some other auto-updating software such as anti-virus, etc. on the PC?
Actually, yes. I have AVG running, and it does a complete system scan daily at 8am.Quite sure that isn't the cause, but I'll run my code overnight again tonight, without AVG running.
